This is actually just a man page bug, not a program bug.  

"man fs" lists the various options, including a number which have a
-dir option, like:

     listacl - list access control list
     syntax: fs listacl  [-dir <directory>+]  [-help]
     alias: fs la

However, if one does "fs la -dir /mit/boojum" then it says -dir is an
unrecognized or ambiguous switch, and "fs help la" indicates that the
correct flag is -path, not -dir.
