Also, while programs may treat directory operations as traversal
of static but potentially large data structures, it's actually
the case that the directory structure could be changing as the
program is running. I know of no way to get an atomic snapshot
of a directory structure.
A standard directory package cannot finesse its way around this,
or ignore it, especially if it offers iterative traversal.
