+/* NAME
+/* make_dirs 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/* create directory hierarchy
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/* #include <make_dirs.h>
+/*
+/* int make_dirs(path, perms)
+/* const char *path;
+/* int perms;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/* make_dirs() creates the directory specified in \fIpath\fR, and
+/* creates any missing intermediate directories as well. Directories
+/* are created with the permissions specified in \fIperms\fR, as
+/* modified by the process umask.
+/* DIAGNOSTICS:
+/* Fatal: out of memory. make_dirs() returns 0 in case of success.
+/* In case of problems. make_dirs() returns -1 and \fIerrno\fR
+/* reflects the nature of the problem.
+/* SEE ALSO
+/* mkdir(2)
+/* LICENSE
+/* .ad
