68 They may evaluate their argument multiple times, so it must not
69 have side effects. Each of these may involve a relatively costly
70 call to `strlen' on some systems, so these values should be cached.
72 _D_EXACT_NAMLEN (DP) returns the length of DP->d_name, not including
73 its terminating null character.
75 _D_ALLOC_NAMLEN (DP) returns a size at least (_D_EXACT_NAMLEN (DP) + 1);
76 that is, the allocation size needed to hold the DP->d_name string.
