We need to know the contents of "queue.h" in order to fully identify this
problem.  In addition, it seems that you have posted something which
is not the program you compiled, since in addition to the <- arrows,
it contains two copies of the first few lines of the recover() function.

Also, the use of DIRBLKSIZ to detect whether or not the BSD-style of
directory streams is there is not supported and probably will not work.

I would suggest deleting these lines, since if a system has <dirent.h>
at all (as it must in order to compile this program), it should contain
valid definitions of struct dirent and the corresponding declaration of
readdir().  Thus, the use of "direct" should not be necessary.
