What os are you on?
I did "man readdir" and "man dirent" and found enough information. One
bit from the dirent manpage:
BUGS
The usage of the member d_type of struct dirent is unportable as it is
FreeBSD-specific. It also may fail on certain filesystems, for example
the cd9660 filesystem.
Maybe that's hitting you ...
HTH,
