to be exact- clang 18 refuses to compile this otherwise:

/builddir/musl-1.2.5_git20240511/src/dirent/posix_getdents.c:6:5: error: conflicting types for 'posix_getdents'
    6 | int posix_getdents(int fd, void *buf, size_t len, int flags)
      |     ^
/builddir/musl-1.2.5_git20240511/include/dirent.h:41:9: note: previous declaration is here
   41 | ssize_t posix_getdents(int, void *, size_t, int);
      |         ^
1 error generated.
