Unfortunately it does. See "pathname" parameter: int fstatat(int dirfd, const char *pathname, struct stat *statbuf, int flags);
It stats the file "pathname" relative to directory "dirfd". Normally when readdir returns DT_UNKNOWN one has to statat the filename relative to the directory to figure out the real d_type.

Gah, thanks. Looks like I was thinking of BSD.
