Hmm, I think that passing in canonical path isn't necessary here. The
path argument is from the second iteration canonicalized by the metadata
retrieval function. So to avoid the bug you IMO just need to
canonicalize the first call of this function. It's true that it would
actually change the path as reported by debug/error messages but I don't
think that should be problematic.

... Here I'd change path for canonPath and would not refactor the rest.

Is there any reason you chose to add the parameter?
