On Solaris, only open(O_CREAT) (w/o O_EXCL) and creat() do so; the following do not follow symbolic links as the last component of the pathname: mknod (making pipes or devices) mkdir bind (others?)
Others (some are obvious, but, hey, if we're making a list, might as well be complete): link (does not follow second argument if it exists) symlink (agin, the second argument) rename (obliterates second argument if it exists) -Phil
