The dirent d_type field is not available on every system. This was introduced at 2.38.0-rc0 in diagnose.c diagnose.c, line 79: error(1565): struct "dirent" has no field "d_type" e->d_type == DT_DIR && strlen(e->d_name) == 2 && (3 more issues in diagnose exist of this form). The code should use the NO_D_TYPE_IN_DIRENT knob to detect whether this is an existing field as defined in cache.h. This change breaks the build on NonStop systems (at least). I'm sorry I missed this during review. Randall -- Brief whoami: NonStop&UNIX developer since approximately UNIX(421664400) NonStop(211288444200000000) -- In real life, I talk too much.
