Then, how come I can zap the directory count up to a multiple of 44, and have
them available.
I also saw some (old) documentation stating this.
------------------<unsnip>------------------
You should share that with us. In 35+ years, I've never seen a directory
block count stored anywhere; only the count of blocks used. The classic
method of counting the total of directory blocks is to open the
directory as a sequential dataset and read until EOF is encountered. And
I'm sure we'd like to see, or know about, this old documentation you
mention.
