Works fine for me. I tested most of the tickets.

However, #3987 does not seems a quite right to me.

Are you sure that errno after readdir() will not be EINTR all the time? I 
think is a possibility. Not very likely, but still there.

Maybe a better implementation is to have a counter and if errno is 
EINTR after XXX readdir calls, just abort the readdir.


Sincerely,
Gabriel
