    A few users who have tested this on 2.4 did indeed not reproduce this problem
    but got a number of log messages when creating directories with long names
    that indicate bugs in the data structures.

    Quite a efw people now have found ways to create directories that do not
    show up in ls or find output (without any errors), but this might be a
    weird bug in ls and find.

    (Anyway, the precise discussion can be found on the reiserfs list)
