This is  readdir()  problem.

I have no longer SunOS 4.1.* machines in my repertoire, so I can't
check how it did things but there is following passage in the begining
of the  functions.c (and mailq.c, too):

#ifdef HAVE_DIRENT_H
# include <dirent.h>
#else /* not HAVE_DIRENT_H */
# define dirent direct
# ifdef HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H
#  include <sys/ndir.h>
# endif /* HAVE_SYS_NDIR_H */
# ifdef HAVE_SYS_DIR_H
#  include <sys/dir.h>
# endif /* HAVE_SYS_DIR_H */
# ifdef HAVE_NDIR_H
#  include <ndir.h>
# endif /* HAVE_NDIR_H */
#endif /* HAVE_DIRENT_H */

Now, which of these files you have ?
What the  "man readdir"  tell to use ?
(Compare SunOS 4.1.* and Solaris 2.5.1)
