This should be doable with some combination of fdopendir(3) and
readdir(3).
I'm not sure how to avoid leaking memory through the returned DIR
pointer
and any memory allocated with by readdir(3). This is usually free'd by
closedir(3),
which we can't use without closing the underlying file.

Ignore my previous post, I was tired and forgot about dup(). How about
something like this? (attached)
I only tested this on Ubuntu, I don't have an OS X machine. I still went
with readdir_r because the AIX and Solaris man pages for readdir were
vague about its behavior when called from multiple t
thanks david.
using dup() is very nice idea!
your code works with
CFLAGS=-D__DARWIN_64_BIT_INO_T # manual is wrong
and a fix:
// buf = ((char*)buf) + d_reclen(buf);
buf = (struct dirent *)(((char*)buf) + d_reclen(buf));
and adding
#define NAME_MAX 256
