Problem with 'glob' running under FreeBSD 4.3
Hello!
I have found a problem with the use of the function 'glob' in
Heimdal/ftpd
running on a FreeBSD 4.3 system:
The defined name GLOB_LIMIT is an errorcode in the FreeBSD
implementation
of glob (with the value -3) but the Heimdal ftpd uses this name as a
flag
to the glob-function. In the Heimdal roken version of glob this is a
flag
to glob limiting memory usage. The FreeBSD version of glob fails when it
gets the created flags (the ftpd simply crashes with a segmentation
fault).
By simply removing the GLOB_LIMIT from the flags seems to solve the
problem.
