Problem is that O_NOFOLLOW adds O_NOTRANS.

+## Midterm Evaluation
+### Accomplished
+* Assigned copyright to the FSF.
+* Read many documentation and source code.
+* /dev/fd/N bug fixed
+* Prepared a patch for getsockopt()
+* Fixed linkat() problems.
+* Investigated bug with O_NOFOLLOW & O_NOTRANS (needs more work).
+* Investigated a glib test failure (garray). Not a Hurd issue.
+### Downtime
+* Studied a lot to finish my BSc. Didn't work on Hurd for a month because of
+ that, so that's why I couldn't make a lot of progress (this was known in
+ advance, although in the end the downtime was a bit larger than expected).
+* There's no expected downtime from now on.
