I'm happy to see this question is again an issue. I do not know about POSIX, but my common sense says that a directory, even it is a network directory, never has zero size. As you mention, it's the space reserved for the directoryobject. With a network fs (and every virtual fs) the link with the object on the harddrive isn't there, but a directory takes always some memory! In C there would be an entry object allocated, I do not have to explain that. The size will probably will be much less than the 4Kb with Ext2/3/4, but my point is it is never zero.
