Right, so the (ssb.sb.st_mode & S_IFMT) is S_IFDIR which is basically
the OS telling us that it is a directory. I don't see what we can do if
the OS is not telling us the right thing. The filestat code is a bit
convoluted trying to deal with lots of strange operating systems, but
this part of it seems pretty clear.
