Thanks Werner.

The reason that scandir.c didn't experience problems is that Cygwin overrides
the file with its own implementation and the one in the posix directory is ifdef'd out.

The patch is checked in, however, I removed the change to libc/sys/cygwin/sys/dirent.h from this
patch.  The change in the header file should correspond to a change in the cygwin source code.  I
have made Chris aware of this issue and will leave it to him to make the changes.
