Restructuring the code so that we do not use "struct dirent" in the first place, even in the original code that used only those obtained from readdir(), perhaps? Then the codepath that would take the _thing_ that describes the diretory entry would expect to see the data in the struct you define (not "struct dirent" from the system), and you can safely manufacture ones out of thin air.
