CAP patch needed for Network Trash dir ownership

This problem exists under HP-UX 8.0 with CAP 6.0 Patch level 126
(it also was in patch level 100, but I didn't notice it.)

When the "Network Trash Folder" is set up by aufs (in afpos.c),
it leaves the ownership of this directory as root, rather than
changing it to the ownership of the parent directory. This
is not a problem on the Suns/Solbornes. The result of this
is that the user is told that the item cannot be left in the
trash and must be deleted immediately. On the working systems
the user is not prompted unless they attempt to terminate
their aufs connection and have not emptied the trash (Mac OS 7.1).

A quick workaround would be to chmod this directory 770 so that
the user could write in it, but I'd prefer to have it set
correctly.

Has anyone seen/patched this?

Please send replies directly to me heather@issci1.ucsd.edu.

Thank you,
Happy New Year!
