Oh well, it was a bit of a stab in the dark anyway.
I guess we'll have to do Eric's suggestion to wrap opendir
<http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10305#68>.
That should work around the problem, and in some sense
it's nicer anyway because it causes dirfd to work in
the usual way (as required in the next POSIX).
