I don't think you mentioned that in your first post.

As I said -- and I just doublechecked with a microperl built
straight from a clean 5.8.8 tarball -- readdir works absolutely
flawless in microperl.

If I knew what your uconfig.sh looked like, I would probably be
able to tell you what to change...
Anyway, the _unmodified_ uconfig.sh that ships with perl 5.8.8
has everything set up for readdir to work. Just search the file
for d_readdir. In the original uconfig.sh it's
d_readdir='define'
which means that the readdir() function is assumed to be present
and will be used to build support for readdir into microperl.
