Removed references to Linux. And removed the section about linux_getdents

entirely, as I can not find an error message like that in the compat/osf1
source.

OSF/1 executables can not handle directory offset cookies > 32 bits.
Should such an offset occur, you will see the message "linux_getdents:
dir offset too large for emulated program". Currently, this can only
happen on NFS mounted filesystems, mounted from servers that return
offsets with information in the upper 32 bits. These errors should
rarely happen, but can be avoided by mounting this filesystem with offset
translation enabled. See the

option to
.Xr mount_nfs 8 .
The
.Fl 2
option to
.Xr mount_nfs 8
will also have the desired effect, but is less preferable.
