  Gnulib module: readdir
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function is missing on some platforms:
  MSVC 9.
  @item
  On platforms where @code{off_t} is a 32-bit type, this function may not
  work correctly on huge directories larger than 2 GB.  Also, on platforms
  where @code{ino_t} is a 32-bit type, this function may report inode numbers
  incorrectly.  (Cf. @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE}.)
