Bisected it back to this commit and reverting it fixes the problem. However, it only happens on certain machines even with the same kernel & filesystem (ext3). I've two groups of similar computers, each group running identical kernels. The ones listing only ~250 files are of course in error. Eldritch is running 2.6.28-rc3 with that commit reverted. With 2.8.28-rc3 it showed the incorrect number.
