I see. How about another approach.
- In every file which defines a __readdir64 function we also add
'__lfs_readdir' as a strong alias of it.
- In <dirent.h> we replace the piece of code (used only if
defined __USE_FILE_OFFSET64 && !defined __REDIRECT)
#define readdir readdir64
with
#define readdir __lfs_readdir
extern struct dirent *readdir (DIR *__dirp) __THROW;
Would that be namespace clean in your opinion? Shall I prepare a patch
for it?
