    The hard question is which one to choose...

My suggestion would be, whichever is in the earlier dir file in the dir
path.  I mean, if the dir path is /dir1:/dir2, then use the entry from
/dir1/dir in preference to one from /dir2/dir.

I don't think it really makes much difference, at least in Luc's case
they were all 100% identical anyway.
