I doubt this is correct. Why should the status of the directory
containing another directory have any effect? Also, what if the
parameter is not for a directory but a file? This isn't disallowed.
Before looking at any more patches I want to see some extensions to
the testsuite. We'll see whether we agree on the expected result and
then look for a patch.
