Always tell people what operating system you're using...

Under FreeBSD-2.1.7 the fix is to add:

#include <errno.h>

to the list of headers in extension-fileio.c

Then change 'umode_t' to 'mode_t', wherever it appears in extension-fileio.c

Then change 'file_list_select(const struct dirent *d)' to

'file_list_select(struct dirent *d)' in extension-fileio.c

I'd mail a patch, but Ken's gonna have a new version out soon mebbies,
perhaps, whenever.

Ay.
