Because access() does not invoke stat() (at least not in a way visible
to Perl), B<the stat result cache "_" is not set>. This means that the
outcome of the following two tests is different. The first has the stat
-bits of C</etc/passed> in C<_>, and in the second case this still
+bits of C</etc/passwd> in C<_>, and in the second case this still
contains the bits of C</etc>.
{ -d '/etc';
