egmont already responded to my feature request regarding the (in some environments problematic/unexpected) -rdonly option here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/joe-editor/mailman/message/35856940/
This was a quiet valuable little improvement IMHO, which ensures unionfs mounts won't get unnecessary polluted.
Just wanted to file it here, hope referencing the ml-post isn't violating good manners here!

Thanks, -harry

I think it's just this change, right? access(2) isn't one of those calls that don't exist in things like SVr3, is it? We already have -- and only relatively recently -- added one call to it in path.c so I'm assuming it's OK.
