-`VFS.scan_tree` uses `listdir2`, for performance, and that does `lstat`
-for each file. If the `lstat` fails, `listdir2` fails, and `scan_tree`
-pretends the entire directory is empty. That's a problem: it should
-skip only the items for which `lstat` failed.
-
-FUSE can cause the `lstat` to fail.

-Thanks, weasel, for spotting the problem and trying things until we found
-the reason why his home directory was getting ignored.
