Most likely, your system has its own versions of the BSD directory(3)
library, which are conflicting with the replacement versions in glob.c.  
Recompile glob.o from glob.c with -DBSD and relink.  If that isn't
sufficient, you might also try recompiling everything with both SYSV
and HPUX defined -- that should cover most such odd hybrid systems.

Good luck ...
