RE: [issue2667] failure in test-archive-symlinks.t

I would like to confirm that I have the same problem.

I noticed this problem with version 2.8.2 and it also occurs with
version 2.9.

Curiously, if I run the test with the --debug switch, it passes,
although the apparent source for the error is there "lchmod (file
attributes) error: Function not implemented":
