It started when the openat() syscall was added. It got fixed a few times.
I suspect it stayed fixed on an actual x86 kernel but the x86_64 kernel
still exhibits it being broken. But I don't run an x86 kernel anymore for
the obvious reason.

Source code can be found here. The project effectively died with
floppy disks so last release in 2006 is about right.

https://asm.sourceforge.net/asmutils.html

But if I try the couple of tools that still have real value, they just
segfault.

Remaining useful tools: tr, httpd, chmod, mv, ln
