bug#8606: Works in 8.5 but broken from 8.10 onwards

[Debarshi Ray]

I have got the latest Git master in /tmp and 8.5 from Fedora 14 installed
system-wide.

address@hidden coreutils]$ /tmp/bin/du -hs .git .
32M             .git
9.5M            .
address@hidden coreutils]$ /tmp/bin/du -hs . .git
41M             .
address@hidden coreutils]$ /tmp/bin/du -hs .
41M             .
address@hidden coreutils]$ /tmp/bin/du -hs .git
32M             .git
address@hidden coreutils]$ du -hs .git .
32M             .git
41M             .
address@hidden coreutils]$ du -hs . .git
41M             .
32M             .git
address@hidden coreutils]$ du -hs .git
32M             .git
address@hidden coreutils]$ du -hs .
41M             .
address@hidden coreutils]$ 

I get similar results using 8.10 on Fedora 15.

If this is indeed a bug, then I can try to cook a patch.

Happy hacking,
Debarshi
