if `du -x` is given a bunch of dirs and files in the same directory, then it fails to descend into the subdirs ... for exampe: $ mkdir foo $ cd foo $ echo somestring > file $ mkdir emptydir nonemptydir $ cp file nonemptydir/
[these work] $ du 8 ./nonemptydir 4 ./emptydir 20 . $ du * 4 emptydir 4 file 8 nonemptydir $ du -x 8 ./nonemptydir 4 ./emptydir 20 . [this fails] $ du -x * 4 emptydir 4 file 4 nonemptydir tried with coreutils-6.6 and latest cvs ... coreutils-5.94 seems to work OK though ... -mike
