+/*************************************************
+* Attempt to create a directory *
+*************************************************/
+
+/* All the directories that Exim ever creates for itself are within the spool
+directory as defined by spool_directory. We are prepared to create as many as
+necessary from that directory downwards, inclusive. However, directory creation
+can also be required in appendfile and sieve filters. The making function
+therefore has a parent argument, below which the new directories are to go. It
+can be NULL if the name is absolute.
+
+If a non-root uid has been specified for exim, and we are currently running as
+root, ensure the directory is owned by the non-root id if the parent is the
+spool directory.
+
+Arguments:
+ parent parent directory name; if NULL the name must be absolute
+ name directory name within the parent that we want
+ mode mode for the new directory
+ panic if TRUE, panic on failure
+
+Returns: panic on failure if panic is set; otherwise return FALSE;
+ TRUE on success.
