-+
-+@itemize @bullet
-+@item
-+On systems which do not define @code{NAME_MAX}, it may not be possible
-+to use @code{readdir_r} safely because the caller does not specify the
-+length of the buffer for the directory entry.
-+
-+@item
-+On some systems, @code{readdir_r} cannot read directory entries with
-+very long names. If such a name is encountered, @theglibc{}
-+implementation of @code{readdir_r} returns with an error code of
-+@code{ENAMETOOLONG} after the final directory entry has been read. On
-+other systems, @code{readdir_r} may return successfully, but the
-+@code{d_name} member may not be NUL-terminated or may be truncated.
-+
-+@item
-+POSIX-1.2008 does not guarantee that @code{readdir} is thread-safe,
-+even when access to the same @var{dirstream} is serialized. But in
-+current implementations (including @theglibc{}), it is safe to call
-+@code{readdir} concurrently on different @var{dirstream}s, so there is
-+no need to use @code{readdir_r} in most multi-threaded programs. In
-+the rare case that multiple threads need to read from the same
-+@var{dirstream}, it is still better to use @code{readdir} and external
-+synchronization.
-+
-+@item
-+It is expected that future versions of POSIX will obsolete
-+@code{readdir_r} and mandate the level of thread safety for
-+@code{readdir} which is provided by @theglibc{} and other
-+implementations today.
