Garrett Cooper <yaneg...@gmail.com> added the comment:

*NOUNLINK was not implemented by OSX, so there's actually a bug with the 
compile tests if you take that into consideration. And again, only FreeBSD 
defines *NOUNLINK. The other BSDs, not so much.

As far as the reason why I implemented the flags, the documentation that I was 
looking at didn't implement those flags. I looked at the latest documentation 
and it appears to be correct though. I will implement tests for *UNLINK and 
*HIDDEN (FWIW the tests I wrote are ok for cross-compilation because they just 
test for the existence of the values -- they don't test to ensure that the 
functionality is correct, like some of the logic in configure was recently 
`fixed' to do).
