Hi Rick,

the patch doesn't help. So how can I help to fix that? Of course, I can use the 
work-around with oldnfs, but ...

Oh well. You could try this patch (which is the one to fix readdir for union 
mounts), since I can see that VOP_VPTOCNP() will also be broken without it. (I 
can't see how that would break "ls", but it breaks __getcwd() and friends, so 
maybe it can affect "ls" somehow?)

It's a cut/paste under windows, so I'm afraid the whitespace will be messed up, 
but it's pretty simple to apply by hand.

I haven't yet succeeded in reproducing the problem, but will be poking at it 
some more, rick
