You need to get your hands on a copy of "ndir", a set of routines that
emulate BSD-style directory reading under System V.  I don't know where
you can get it, off hand, but you might try uunet and so on.

The C preprocessor is just niggling about "#endif MUMBLE" lines.  It's
not the code's fault, and they has nothing to do with how well it actually
compiles.  I'd just ignore them.

Hope this helps,
