are broken (apparently all BSD systems). This breakage leads to unlink
on files in an open directory causing a later seekdir to miss
files. The bug happens due to a block boundary bug in the BSD libc
implementation of these calls.
This replacement code also fixes a severe memory usage problem with
telldir that can cause closedir() to take an arbitrary amount of time.
I have reported the bug in readdir to Greg Lehey (a FreeBSD maintainer)
(This used to be commit e1bf7c4279fbc03a52497d24cea375e75059cba1)
