Here I attach a tarball with the simple test written by Andrew Tridgell
(Makefile I drafted myself, original was lost, so blame me if any) which
somehow proves, that we do have some problems with the consistency of
telldir/seekdir behaviour in FreeBD. So, please run this tests against
ZFS and whichever else you want FS and check, does the problem still
exists and, maybe - how it can be solved in a better and portable way.

From my side I can only confirm it's still a problem on FreeBSD-STABLE
on UFS2.

With regards,
Timur Bakeyev.
