Pathname Evaluation
? Include graphic of the path evaluation process with Jennifer's explanations ???XXX
? There are two pathname evaluation routines. The handler patheval() is called to find,
verify privlages on and return information on a node that exists. The handler
evalformake() is called to find, verify permissions, and return information on a node
that is to become a parent. Additionally, evalformake() returns a pointer to the start
of the name of the new node to be created.
