In ls.c, errno should be checked after a NULL result from readdir, to see if
there was an error. It may be that in a "normal" posix system, no error can
happen here, but my NAS box (an EMC Celerra) is reporting EACCES here, so a
defensive check, rather than ignoring the error, would be helpful.
I suppose this applies to all readdir's.

while ((next = readdir (reading)) != NULL)
if (file_interesting (next))
{
enum filetype type = unknown;
#if HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE
if (next->d_type == DT_DIR || next->d_type == DT_CHR
|| next->d_type == DT_BLK || next->d_type == DT_SOCK
|| next->d_type == DT_FIFO)
type = next->d_type;
#endif
total_blocks += gobble_file (next->d_name, type, 0, name);
}
if (CLOSEDIR (reading))
{
error (0, errno, "%s", quotearg_colon (name));
exit_status = 1;
/* Don't return; print whatever we got. */
}
