This is not of interest to Matthew, since he is using Linux clients against a
FreeBSD server.  However, it is of interest to me.  This is the first time I've
seen this (unless I just forgot;-) and since readdirplus is not a default, I
suspect few test/use it.

I will take a look at this, since it sounds reasonable.

Thanks for posting it, rick
