Thank you very much.

I fetched the code. It took me quite a while to compile it (following
the instruction on the web didn't work for me) but eventually I made it.

There were some errors at the test files. I personally don't care, but
an error at tests/Dirent_Test.cpp:70
    return ACE_OS::strcmp (d->d_name, TEST_ENTRY) == 0;

Looks strange to me. TEST_ENTRY is ACE_WCHAR*, but dirent.d_name is
char[]. Does that mean that readdir does not work properly with unicode?
I thought ACE should wrap dirent for that reason???

Other errors where at
tests/Dirent_Test.cpp:70
tests/Dirent_Test.cpp:244
tests/Dirent_Test.cpp:245
tests/Network_Adapters_Test.cpp:966
