traverse_attrfile() returns -1 only for:
if ((dp->d_name[0] == '.' && dp->d_name[1] == '\0') ||
(dp->d_name[0] == '.' && dp->d_name[1] == '.' &&
dp->d_name[2] == '\0') ||
(sysattr_type(dp->d_name) == _RO_SATTR) ||
(sysattr_type(dp->d_name) == _RW_SATTR))
return (-1);
So this primarily skips '.' and '..'.
The rest seems to check for DOS extensions in extended attributes.
.... but this is only done to copy attributes and not files.
