While porting Subversion to OS/2 I came across a failure where it tries to
open a file using only APR_READ | APR_CREATE. This results in an error on
OS/2, it doesn't seem to like the idea of creating a new file with
read-only access.

Is this supposed to work or is it just lucky that happens to work on other
platforms? IE should I fix APR or Subversion?

I'd fix APR as I think it's reasonable to use that construct to 'touch' an empty file - which is what SVN does, IIRC. Seems like OS/2 should just implicitly add write behind the scenes in this corner case... -- justin
