    Cygwin: posix_getdents: do not clear attached DIR structure at fork(2)
    
    The upcoming POSIX issue 8 will require that posix_getdents after
    fork() will pick up at the right spot, independently of being
    called in the parent or in the child process.  Remove the expression
    clearing out the attached DIR after fork.
