+       Make `ls' a lot more efficient on systems (e.g., linux-2.4.*)
+       that save file type information in directory entries.
+       * src/ls.c [enum filetype] (unknown):
+       Add members (as yet unused):
+       (HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE): Define.
+       (format_needs_type): New global.
+       (main): Set it.
+       (print_dir): Set `type' from directory entry, if possible.
+       (gobble_file): Add a parameter, TYPE.
+       Stat the file only if its type is unknown and we need the type.
+       Patch from Ulrich Drepper.
+
        Shred can now determine the size of a block devices (e.g. /dev/fd0)
        by writing until a write operation fails.
        * src/shred.c: Include assert.h.
