Fixed this by removing "time_t" from "il_system.h".  Adding the
include for it would have polluted the namespace too much.

Easy fix - done.

Yep, you're right.  The "d_type" field is not portable.  I've
rearranged the directory scanning code to make it more portable
and opaque.

These changes are now in CVS.  Let me know if there is anything else.
