just like magic :)

for a while there, it looked as though the lack of pthread_fchdir on Tiger was going to be the end of reliable support… 

but Tiger lives to die another day….

Some interested users discovered a deficiency in a part of legacy-support’s fdopendir implementation, and have come up with a fix.

due to the way the system on 10.4 works, however, it looks like this fix will not work on Tiger.

Unless someone comes up with a trick for this, this could be the end of Tiger support for MacPorts.

We all know this is coming one day, but there are some dedicated Tiger users out there who will be disappointed by this.
