Directory Routines in Perl under Xenix386

[Lance N. Antrim]

After modifying the header file to note that I had TCP/IP and adding
the hint for YACC, perl 4.003 complied fine on my Xenix 386 system.  It
passed all the tests without problem.  Now I have found one problem and
I want to see if it has been dealt with before I go to work on it.

The problem is in the directory routines.  I discovered it when I tried
to use the opendir, readdir and closedir routines in the example in the
Camel book using 'complete.pl.  I found I got a list of no files for the
complete routine to work on.  On further examination I found that I was
getting information from the reading of the directory, but not a list of
separated file names.  

In skimming the Xenix manuals it apears that I need to add 'ldir' to my
library list and possibly make some changes in the appropriate Perl
code.  Before going further I wanted to see if anyone else has compiled
Perl 4.003 under Xenix386 and tested the directory routines.  If so, do
they work as they are supposed to?  If not, has anyone made the changes
necessary to get them working?  

Thanks,
Lance
