Well it's clear that the sub-volume is not contained in the snapshot or
sent.

But in the snapshot (on the original fs) I have the empty directory
from the subvolume that was not recursively snapshotted.
Shouldn't that be just a plain empty directory... and thus be
sent|received (as empty directory) when I send|receive the snapshot?


Cheers,
Chris.
