readdir returns just the list of names in the directory, not the full paths.
You will need to either chdir to that dir before the stat (-d xxx) AND
chdir back when down (::), OR you will need to build a new path by
joining the dir and path together, adding a : in between if there isn't
one already. 

If you do the path building approach, you should abstract it into
a set of functions since it won't work on all platforms.  Each OS has
it's own rules for building paths.  There may even be a perl module that
does this already?  Anyone?
