I'm running on a Sun 3/60, Sun OS 4.0.3, compiled with cc and yacc.
A minor nit:
Asking bash to complete on a socket in the file system (like
/tmp/.X11-unix/X0 if you run X) will result in bash thinking the
socket is a directory:
$ ls /tmp/.X11-unix/X0/
The offending piece of code in readline.c looks like this:
if ((stat (filename, &finfo) == 0) &&
(finfo.st_mode & S_IFDIR))
{
if (the_line[rl_point] != '/')
rl_insert_text ("/");
}
else
Since S_IFDIR (on Sun OS) is 0040000 and S_IFSOCK is 0140000 I guess
the only thing to do is to check if st_mode is S_IFDIR and *not*
S_IFSOCK.
