If you can duplicate the problem in a directory with just a few files.
Then if you'll send along a `dir' from the directory and the results of
a `ls -t' run using strace then I'll take a look at this.

To use strace, set the STRACE environment variable to 1,somefile.
somefile will then contain a lot of strace information when you're done.
