Yeah, I removed the first comparison with "-" for second argument and now
it overrides for any directory. I have attached the updated patch for the
same.

Also, I had some questions regarding the GSoC application:
1. I am interested in any of the following projects:
  - Support PAE on ia32
  - Graceful System Shutdown
  - Improve hash table implementation
  Can I write them in one single proposal or should submit separate
proposals?

2. What chances do I have in these kernel projects? Or should I focus more
on app projects. Actually I had an Advanced OS course recently, so all
these concepts are fresh right now.

Thank you for your time and suggestions.

Cheers,
Ketan
