In the meantime, I changed -1 to sizeof (void *) to address alignment
issues.

I am not sure we have cases where we loop awaiting for new entries
to be added at the end of the directory.  That is doomed to fail
anyway because getdents(2) cn return deleted entries, and a new
entry may be added before the end of the buffer.
