I am messing around with bash and configure, porting python (check it
out! http://www.python.org) to msdos.. 

Well one of the brick walls I banged my head to is stat, unfortunetaly
python doesn't use the constants defined in stat.h, but defines them
itself after 'de facto standard definitions' for example.. 

		Python(UNIX)	djgpp
S_IFDIR		0x4000		0x3000

(And no, I can't get python to use the constants in stat.h) Well one
solution to this problem would be to detect that I am using djgpp in
configure, either I compile somehing like #ifdef __djgpp__ retun 1
#else return 0, or well is there any other solution?
