Re: Bug in readdir_r errno handling

readdir_r in newlib/libc/posix/readdir_r.c returns errno if getdents
fails or reaches the end of the directory (a return of 0). But
getdents only sets errno on negative returns. If a previous library
call had failed and set errno, it would keep this value and readdir_r
returns an error instead of 0 on EOF.

You are correct. I'll make up a patch.
