Thanks for checking. Do you have a reproducer for that?

Yes, the patch fixed 'du' when I was running 'du' in an XFS filesystem that was 
being mutated by a different process that was creating subdirectories. Without 
the fix, 'du' often (but not always) crashed; with the fix 'du' never crashed in 
the dozen times I tried.
