Nope, not just FreeDos. I have tried about four flavours of DOS with the same result. Same with XCOPY or XXCOPY with /L option. Almost like the DIR and related utility programs "file matching code" share similar source code. I know zero about DOS internals ;-) I just stumbled across this issue and was puzzled why I couldn't locate files that I knew existed.

The sources are available, no? Fix it yourself?

I just tried it in Dosbox and it seems to stop even earlier, not
listing any deeper files or directories.

But I suspect you are right and this is a bug in Freedos.
