[BusyBox] Problem with mkdir of busybox-0.60.5

[k.s.sathish at delphiauto.com]

Good morning Glenn,

I have downloaded "busybox-unstable-20021122.tar " file , and extracted only
mkidr.c , ash.c file and put them in ( busybox-0.60.5/ stable version ).
Compiled and built it , but i guess the answer remains the same.

The following is the capture :

=================================================================================
~ $ pwd
/home/sathish
~ $ ls -al
drwxr-xr-x    2 sathish  ect          1024 Nov 11  2002 .

Sorry, i just realised my mistake, i should have said the version in the
_unstable_ branch of CVS works.

There are both unstable and stable branches of course.
