readdir not setting d_type 0.9.28

[Rogelio Serrano]

readdir is not setting d_type in struct dirent?

am i missing something?

hre is the test im using:

#include <dirent.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int
main()
{
    struct dirent * de;
    DIR * mydir;

    mydir = opendir("testdir");
    de = readdir(mydir);
    while(de)
    {
         printf("%d\n", de->d_type);
        de = readdir(myfir);
    }
    closedir(mydir);
    return 0;
}

im using 0.9.28 on 2.6.17
