+	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.
