mkdir: depend on sys_stat

mkdir has two portability problems: one with the trailing slash, one with
the declaration on mingw. The former is solved by the 'mkdir' module, the
latter by the 'sys_stat' module. This is confusing. How can anyone remember
this? If someone wants a working mkdir() function, one module should be
enough, and it is the 'mkdir' module. I'm therefore applying this:

        * modules/mkdir (Depends-on): Add sys_stat, because sys_stat provides
        the portability of 'mkdir' to mingw systems.
