#include <dirent.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
DIR *d = opendir(".");
struct dirent *de;
while (de = readdir(d))
  if (de->d_type)
    printf("directory ");
  else
    printf("file ");
closedir(d);
    return 0;
}
d.cpp: In function 'int main()':
d.cpp:7: error: 'struct dirent' has no member named 'd_type'

I checked the header file myself.  it's not there.  there are only 2
entries in the structure. (the 1998 revision).
I tried to make sure I used the latest zip files from current.  this
is with gpp 4.32.
