How could be the bug invalid if du's reporting is always ok ?
It can however be reproduced on the local filesystem. I am able to reproduce 
locally in many cases using the following scenario :
1). Go to a populated and loaded directory. For example a quite heavily used 
user home.
2). Enter one subdirectory - for example .gimp-2.6. In this directory call mc's 
directory sizes. Initially it will properly count everything.
3). Go back one directory in the user's home
4). Call directory sizes again. 

When i do this, almost every time counting it is NOT made again,and it
only puts a size on the previously counted directory (.gimp-2.6 in this
case). All other directories remain with sizes of 4096 bytes or 0.
