New issue 3125: Logical error in detecting dirent.d_type
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/3125/logical-error-in-detecting-direntd_type

Игорь Пашев:

Hi guys! I am porting Debian’s package pypy to Dyson which is Debian on illumos 
kernel and, so far, libc. Its dirent structure does not have `d_type` field, 
but for sure has `d_name`. And when I am building pypy I am getting this error:

```

Looking at this code in rpython/rlib/rposix.py… well after hard time debugging 
:\)… I have found a logical error:

```python
if not _WIN32:
    class CConfig:
        _compilation_info_ = eci
        DIRENT = rffi_platform.Struct('struct dirent',
            [('d_name', lltype.FixedSizeArray(rffi.CHAR, 1)),
             ('d_ino', lltype.Signed)]
            + [('d_type', rffi.INT)] if HAVE_D_TYPE else [])
        if HAVE_D_TYPE:
            DT_UNKNOWN = rffi_platform.ConstantInteger('DT_UNKNOWN')
            DT_REG     = rffi_platform.ConstantInteger('DT_REG')
            DT_DIR     = rffi_platform.ConstantInteger('DT_DIR')
            DT_LNK     = rffi_platform.ConstantInteger('DT_LNK')

    DIRP = rffi.COpaquePtr('DIR')
    dirent_config = rffi_platform.configure(CConfig)
```

Guess what! :\)

Yes, if `HAVE_D_TYPE` is `False`, we get empty list, without `d_name`, `d_ino`.
