Nope.

Right now, I have nothing for you but disappointment....

Which has ATTR_FORCE set but not ATTR_KILL_SUID or ATTR_KILL_SGID.
And that, AFAICT, is impossible.

I wouldn't lose sleep over it - I'm stumped at this point. I'll get
a working path print to you, at minimum...

Another thing that just occurred to me - what compiler are you
using?  We had a report last week on #xfs that xfsdump was failing
with bad checksums because of link time optimisation (LTO) in
gcc-4.8.0. When they turned that off, everything worked fine. So if
you are using 4.8.0, perhaps trying a different compiler might be a
good idea, too.

Cheers,

Dave.
