Ionut Georgescu sends greetings to Russell Cattelan
I have noticed this while trying to apply an ac patch. Our home
directories lie on an IRIX nfs server and there is a known problem with
readdir() in this case. The ac patch was for me the last hope. I have
tried a stock kernel with this patch meanwhile and it didn't work
either (from the nfs point of view).

I'll try that out too. Thanks for the tip.
