Yep, not sure about "." and "..", though I remember most unixy stuff
on DOS systems synthesising them in the bad old days.  There's an
existing test in filesys.test when expects the root directory "/" to
be non-empty; it at least exercises the opendir/readdir/closedir
sequence.

Perhaps a test that created a long-named temporary file (in the
builddir) would be an idea.  But might have to communicate the
NAME_MAX (or equivalent) size to the scheme level to do that
effectively.
