No.

While I haven't yet had time to get the fchown() call to a state where I can debug it (hopefully that will happen later today), I've established the following pattern:

In our development environment, the IFS objects' ownership is transferred, immediately on creation, to the owner's primary group profile, which is as it should be, with full authority granted to *PUBLIC, with nobody explicitly locked out of it.

In our production environment, the IFS objects' ownership remains with the creating user profile, and that creating user profile is then explicitly locked out of all object authorities to it, while *PUBLIC still *has* all object authorities to it, with the result that the creator/owner (and apparently *only* the creator/owner) is locked out of deletion, whether from the command line, or from WRKLNK, or from the unlink() API call.

And this seems to be happening regardless of who the creating user happens to be.

Hopefully, I'll know more before quitting time today.
