Thanks for the clarification. I have one other question. Currently the
man page does not document two fields in the __fat_dirent structure:
d_ino and d_offset. d_ino is presumably the inode number. But, what is
d_offset?
d_ino and d_off (I guess, d_off you meant) is used only for long
filename part in dirents. And,

	d_off == seek offset
        d_ino == inode number

same with getdents(), but again it is valid only on long name dirent.
