  Gnulib module: mkdir
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  When the argument ends in a slash, the function call fails on some platforms.
  @item
  This function mistakenly succeeds on @samp{mkdir("d/./",mode)} on
  some platforms:
  Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw.
  @item
  On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), this function is called @code{_mkdir}
  and takes only one argument.  The fix (without Gnulib) is to define a macro
  like this:
  @smallexample
  #define mkdir ((int (*)()) _mkdir)
  @end smallexample
  or
  @smallexample
  #define mkdir(path,mode) _mkdir (path)
  @end smallexample
  @end itemize
  
  Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @end itemize
