procfs difference between NetBSD and Linux

[Mark Davies <mark%ecs.vuw.ac.nz@localhost>]

The below program demonstrates a difference between /proc on NetBSD and 
Linux.

If run in a directory with a writable "foo.txt" then on Linux the second 
openat() succeeds but on NetBSD it fails (EEXIST).  This behavior 
difference breaks the latest samba (4.14.x) on NetBSD.

Can this be fixed?
