+This works:

+    $ touch a && settrans a /hurd/symlink b
+
+This doesn't:
+
+    $ mkdir a && settrans a /hurd/symlink b
+    settrans: a: Is a directory
+
+It's the same `file_set_translator` RPC both times, and it's [[translator
+short-circuiting|hurd/translator/short-circuiting]] which makes the latter one
+fail:
