/* CV 2011-01-13: Observations on the Cygwin mailing list point to an
interesting behaviour in some Windows versions. Apparently the size of
a directory is computed at the time the directory is first scanned. This
can result in two subsequent NtQueryInformationFile calls to return size
0 in the first call and size > 0 in the second call. This in turn can
affect applications like newer tar.
FIXME: Is the allocation size affected as well? */

in the directory, since all those subdirectories point to it. However,
this is painfully slow, so we do without it. */
