RE: problems compiling plan under libc6



S_IFDIR is defined via <sys/stat.h>. In fact this includes <statbuf.h>
which has the real value. Just try this:

#include <sys/stat.h>

main()
{
struct stat             sbuf;

if (sbuf.st_mode & S_IFDIR) exit(0);
exit(1);
}

It compiles cleanly on my machine. However, file_r.c doesn't. But to be
able to dig further I'd need more than file_r.c, some local include
files are missing (like config.h).
