readdir d_type bug causes probrems.

Gtags-4.6 doesn't work correctry in my linux box (using libc-2.2.5).
It always outputs zero-size GRTAGS and GTAGS.

I think that the cause would be the readdir(3) d_type bug.
"BUGS Field d_type is not implemented as of libc6 2.0.4 and will always
return 0(unknown)."

In my linux box, 
1. "unsigned char d_type;" exists in "struct dirent{};". 
   See "/usr/include/dirent.h".
2. so HAVE_DP_D_TYPE is defined.
3. but d_type always return 0. 
4. strbuf_value(curp->sb) returns " const.h" but it should be 
   "fconst.h", I think. See gdb log.

find.c:440
curp->sb = strbuf_open(0);
if (getdirs(dir, curp->sb) < 0)
        die("cannot open '.' directory.");
curp->start = curp->p = strbuf_value(curp->sb);

5. Manually undefining HAVE_DP_D_TYPE solved my problem, that is, 
   "lstat" method was good for me.
