I'm not sure whether there
was ever a standard for readdir that said anything about d_ino different
from what the current POSIX.1 says (which indeed disallows d_ino==0
entries).


I don't think there was either.

Can we remove the d_ino checking in glob from glibc at least (in afuture patch)?


Thanks,
Florian
