The bug results in dropping a file between 2 consecutive calls to getdents/getdents64. Making the buffer large enough for most common cases is indeed a workaround, though I doubt that other programs use bigger buffers solely to work around a samba bug. Perhaps one of the core devs can comment on the reason for the small buffer size in FPC.
