Shawn,
If DT_UNKNOWN exists, then we have to do a stat() of some form to find out the right type.
This is difficult to fix properly to avoid the extra stat() since inside the switch logic we do the recursion, but we might have avoided it earlier because of the exclusion.
I'll send a separate diff for an updated link() vs rename() diff.
I've attached an updated diff that should address concerns of everyone who gave me feedback on my dir.c changes.
Better?
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] If readdir() returns a DTYPE() of DT_UNKNOWN, this warrants further
investigation, i.e. a stat() or lstat(). We have been presuming
anything not DT_DIR is not a dir, which is not the case for
all filesystems (e.g. afs).
Do the lstat() once, and use the results twice.
