The thread mentioned in that one seems to have a few "right" solutions. A compat/gitmkdirat.c likely is the best, modelled after the gnulib one. I'll look at it when I can in the next week or so, so you can ignore my patch. - Somehow I started to trust your ability to code portably a lot - better than I trust myself, [...] eep. ;) I only have access to three major variations at the moment (Linux, semi-old Solaris, recent AIX), so I'm not an authority... Solaris 8 is from before the general Linux/glibc compatability movement, so it's pretty useful for testing. Jason
