Thanks! I'm very much in favour of this added flexibility.

There should also be some user documentation about it though. Right now 
I'm not totally sure how the different files would override each other 
(i e, what file takes priority) in case the same key appears in many files.

Does scandir / dirent.h exist on all supported archs?

Nitpick: I suppose this debug message could be improved by just saying 
"%s does not exist, not searching" or so.
