Subject: [PATCH] Use DT_UNKNOWN when dirent d_type extension is not supported.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

edolstra:
“…since callers of readDirectory have to handle the possibility of
 DT_UNKNOWN anyway, and we don't want to do a stat call for every
 directory entry unless it's really needed.”
