Description

The various fts APIs when enumerating directories because HAVE_FCHDIR isn't defined and it will end up using chdir() on directory file handles.

There is more to this than chdir(), the dirfd() macro is not returning any valid filehandle yet because of ticket #14 (http://svn.netlabs.org/libc/ticket/14) which deals with reimplementing opendir() and friends. So, the correct solution here is to restore the solution with keeping that path around. too bad :/

It turned out just to be used in one place, so it's fixed by adding a HAVE_DIRFD. However I put back all the HAVE_FCHDIR stuff for when we do simpler backends which doesn't implement fchdir.
