for example fchownat() we have chownat() because it does not operate on a fd but on a path.
I am not sure about compatibility but we can always introduce a weak reference like fchownat() ->
chownat().

FYI: those names originate on Solaris, and are proposed for an addition
to Posix/SuS. It's probably a better idea to keep them the same on all
operating systems instead of creating articial differences.
