That happened in the case of a pathname that was ignored, and we did
not ask for "dir->show_ignored". That test used to be *together*
with the "DTYPE(de) != DT_DIR", but splitting the two tests up
means that we can do that (common) test before we even bother to
calculate the real dtype.
Of course, that optimization only matters for systems that don't
have, or don't fill in DTYPE properly.
I also clarified the real relationship between "exclude" and
"dir->show_ignored". It used to do
if (exclude != dir->show_ignored) {
..
which wasn't exactly obvious, because it triggers for two different
cases:
- the path is marked excluded, but we are not interested in ignored
files: ignore it
- the path is *not* excluded, but we *are* interested in ignored
files: ignore it unless it's a directory, in which case we might
have ignored files inside the directory and need to recurse
into it).
so this splits them into those two cases, since the first case
doesn't even care about the type.
I also made a the DT_UNKNOWN case a separate helper function,
and added some commentary to the cases.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
