In fs_lookup(), use stat(2) rather than access(2) to check file existence.
Some mildly broken real-world packages on some operating systems contain dangling symlinks in manual page directories: pestering the user to run makewhatis(8) makes no sense because that won't help. On the other hand, missing read permissions deserve ugly error messages and are unlikely to occur in practice anyway.
