I didn't look at the client.  Hm:

	uint32_t dircount = readdir->count >> 1
	...
	*p++ = cpu_to_be32(dircount);
	*p++ = cpu_to_be32(readdir->count);

Yeah, that's kind of arbitrary.  This dircount thing is just inherently
weird.  We could just revert the server back to ignoring it completely
like it used to--the spec only says it's a "hint", whatever that means.
But presumably somebody must have thought they had a use for it.
