[PATCH] fdopendir: detect FreeBSD bug |
Date: |
Fri, 4 Feb 2011 21:56:12 -0700 |
FreeBSD fdopendir(fd) always consumes fd, even if it fails with
ENOTDIR. The code that works around the GNU Hurd bug also fixes this;
we just need to detect it.
* m4/fdopendir.m4 (gl_FUNC_FDOPENDIR): Detect bug.
* doc/posix-functions/fdopendir.texi (fdopendir): Document it.
Reported by Jim Meyering.
