Hmph, I have to wonder if this is sufficient, though.  When you got
"a/b/c" in path->buf, is it sufficient to avoid mistaking 'c' that
is (eh, rather, "has unexpectedly turned into") a symbolic link to a
directory as a true directory?  Wouldn't we have to be equally careful
about "a" and "a/b" as well?
