read() on dirs - grep

I see misbehaviour of new bsd grep in freebsd on tmpfs when grepping dirs.
For example (on tmpfs /tmp):

mkdir /tmp/qwe
grep something /tmp/qwe
(grep hangs)

When doing the same thing on ordinary filesystem (tried zfs and ufs), all works
correct (grep exits immediately).
I think this is easilly reproducible, but if you want me to submit additional
info on fill a PR, please tell.

I'm not sure though, what is the root of error: tmpfs or grep.
But grep at least should catch a error.

kdumps follows:

on TMPFS:

 11651 grep     CALL  stat(0x5072e0,0x7fffffffe3e0)
 11651 grep     NAMI  "/tmp/qwe"
 11651 grep     STRU  struct stat {dev=67174145, ino=12, mode=drwxr-xr-x , nlink=2, uid=1001, gid=0, rdev=4294967295, atime=1281378090, stime=1281378090, ctime=1281378090, birthtime=1281378090, size=0, blksize=4096, blocks=0, flags=0x0 }
 11651 grep     RET   stat 0
 11651 grep     CALL  fstat(0x3,0x7fffffffe2b0)
 11651 grep     STRU  struct stat {dev=67174145, ino=12, mode=drwxr-xr-x , nlink=2, uid=1001, gid=0, rdev=4294967295, atime=1281378090, stime=1281378090, ctime=1281378090, birthtime=1281378090, size=0, blksize=4096, blocks=0, flags=0x0 }
 11651 grep     RET   fstat 0
 11651 grep     CALL  read(0x3,0x800c97000,0x1000)
 11651 grep     RET   read -1 errno 21 Is a directory
 11651 grep     CALL  read(0x3,0x800c97000,0x1000)
 11651 grep     RET   read -1 errno 21 Is a directory
 11651 grep     CALL  read(0x3,0x800c97000,0x1000)
 11651 grep     RET   read -1 errno 21 Is a directory
...
(infinitely repeating this)


on ZFS:
