Looks like seekdir is just not accepting an offset returned from
getdents:

	openat(AT_FDCWD, "telldir-test", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
	getdents(3, {...{d_ino=20386, d_off=5728083968307607285, d_reclen=24, d_name="192"}...} = 4848
	lseek(3, 5728083968307607285, SEEK_SET) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

Still investigating.
