There is no error checking of any kind. The "closedir" in AT&T's S5R3.[01] implementation consists of just the three calls: two frees and a close. There is no error checking of any kind, unless you count the fact that the return value of the "close" is the return value of "closedir".... In other words, your observation about the contents of your system's "closedir" is not at all inconsistent with Doug's hypothesis that Microport is using AT&T's standard "closedir".
