Ok, the mystery clears a little...I am now getting the same error code with
cygwin's opendir(). And yet, the files and directories used have "full
access control" for "everyone".
I really am no NT expert, but there seems to be some permission problem that
escapes me.
At any rate, if someone else has ascertained that read() works on NT4 SP4,
I'll stop thinking that CYGWIN is the culprit.

Takayuki: yes, fd2 is valid. I tested its value, it's worth 3, not 0.
