It's going to be a few years.
At least the following systems have the bug:

  Darwin 7.2.0 (MacOS 10.3.2)
  FreeBSD 5.0
  IRIX 6.5
  Solaris 7
  Solaris 8
  Solaris 9

They fail the test for whether

  lstat dereferences a symlink specified with a trailing slash...

in that the configure-time test says `no' and does not
define LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
