Well I thought to take my hand at it and see what the strace looked
like.  I followed it against a good strace from one of my own local
directories.  If you search for fhandler_disk_file::opendir you will
find that it fails with error 2 which appears to make subsequent
attempts to access information fail (errno 89).  You will only find one
reference to that handler.  Afterwards it silently fails.

Please correct me if I am wrong here.
