In the V1.5.0 distribution occured a bug, causing a SIG=11, when the ls command was used with -lR flags and an empty directory was examined. This is due to a bug in the /usr/src/lib/ansi/qsort.c function when the number of elements to be sorted equals zero. A bug fix is included. After aplying this patch, recompile at least ls.c. With this fix, ls V1.5.0 works correctly, as far as we tested it.
