I noticed recently that, at least on my Linux system, opening with fopen() a
directory will succeed. Errors will be returned when you attempt to read
from the returned file object.
Should the library code check that it has not just opened a directory within
the open code? Rather than waiting for the caller to attempt to read from
the file?
Thanks.
