Yeah, it does sound more like a filesystem bug than anything else.
(I completely reject the notion that it's an application error to
fsync a directory when you haven't modified it.)
In view of the fact that we just wrapped 10.1, it'd be 3 months before
any change from our side would reach the wild. I think a key question
here is whether the Kali developers are likely to fix it from their side
in less time than that.
