This problem was reported before the patches came out, but apparently
it may be unique to a few sites.

Larry...my mail to you bounced, so here it is.

On my NCR Tower 32/850 (SVR2) system, /usr/include/sys/dir.h
doesn't define DIR at all, but perl.h and/or stab.h assume
it is defined (i think it is supposed to be 'struct direct').

Can this assumption be modified, or is this my problem to patch every
time a new patch is released?
