Richard,
	a collegue of mine installed B-2.11.19 on a 9000/835 some time
	ago and he hit the same problem. He managed to trace this back
	to a wrong implementation of the "ndir" stuff. I don't know
	where the exact fix is, but you should check the directory-access
	configuration details in "src/params.h".
	(The confusion must be between including <dirent.h>, <ndir.h> and
	<sys/dir.h>)


				good luck,
