While investigating https://bugs.python.org/issue31940 I noticed the following is raised as `SystemError` instead of the expected `NotImplementedError`

(note: you need a platform with fchmodat but does not support nofollow)

```
touch foo
ln -s foo bar
python3.6 -c 'import os; os.chmod("bar", 0o666, follow_symlinks=False)
```

Expected: raised `NotImplementedError`
Actual: raised `SystemError`
