Indeed it fails if one sets dired-use-ls-dired to nil.
That variable is initialized in a funny way, via
(string-match "gnu" system-configuration)
I guess (?) many Mac users do indeed have access to GNU ls, despite
not having "gnu" in their `system-configuration'.
It also doesn't really seem to be documented anywhere that dired will
perform less well if the underlying ls does not support --dired.
