Is this the same dirent bug that broke make at libc-5.2.16(ish)+, or a
totaly new one ?
Do people with new distributions (RedHat 3.0.3, I'm not sure if slackware
has a new release), and people aready on libc-5.2.18 (as I am), who fixed
make once, need to fix again (ie it's a new problem), or have we done it
already (ie it's the same problem) ?
