* Translators
* Does settrans -g work? -fg?
* Does fsysopts work? Does setting options with fsysopts work?

+ <gnu_srs> fsysopts /servers/socket/2 works by /1 gives Operation not
+ supported.

+ [[!taglink open_issue_hurd]].

+ <braunr> ah right, some servers don't implement that
+ <braunr> work around this by using showtrans
+ <braunr> fsysopts asks the server itself how it's running, usually giving
+ its command name and options
+ <braunr> showtrans asks the parent how it starts a passive translator
+ attached to the node
+ <gnu_srs> Yes showtrans works :), thanks.
* Does stat() work on all translated nodes and give proper data?
* What about chown, chmod (some translators should pass this through to the underlying node, esp in /dev!)
* Does statfs give correct data?
