I've had a similar thing happen to me a few years back.  If I remember
correctly, it only happened when using cc (moving to gcc fixed it).

Could you try compiling and running the following program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <dirent.h>

int main()
{
  DIR *dir;
  struct dirent *dirent;

  if ((dir = opendir(".")) == NULL) {
    perror("opendir");
    exit(1);
  }

  while ((dirent = readdir(dir)) != NULL)
    puts(dirent->d_name);

  closedir(dir);

  return 0;
}

Make sure to use the same compiler as you are currently using with
SWISH.  If you have gcc, make sure to try it as well.
