PROBLEM:
Find core dumps with extreme long path names. See also
kern/12855

CAUSE:
fts.c does not handle realloc of buffer space correctly.

FIX:
Upgrade fts.c from OpenBSD version 1.9 to 1.20.  The
fix for when fts_open is used with option FTS_NOCHDIR
the full path entry of type FTS_DP is returned with a
trailing '/' if the final directory is empty, was
incorporated in version 1.20. Thanx to Todd Miller
millert@OpenBSD.org

The patch is available at http://www.freebsd.org/~pho/fts.diff
