running any single instance application a second time causes seg fault on solaris.

EVALUATION
Problem: We are calling closedir(dirp) in sysFindSiFile, but then trying to access dirp again after closedir. According to man pages, dirp might be no longer accessible after closedir. This cause a seg fault in solaris 10.
Fix: Make sure we don't reference dirp after closedir(dirp).
