/bin/ls, when run as root, works differently that it does when run as
any other user. If the program is run with uid=0 (root), the 'A'
option is on by default. This is not mentioned in the man page. I'd
recommend replacing:
-A Same as -a, but does not list the files "." and "..".
with:
-A Same as -a, but does not list the files "." and "..".
This is default behavior if @u(ls) is run by root.
