I just had an FP in du/move-dir-while-traversing, due to the traversal
terminating too soon. My autobuilder is running on a 2.2GHz Nehalem,
with the source tree located on a loopback ext4 filesystem on a tmpfs,
so particularly rapid test execution is understandable.

Patch obvious (I ran 200 trials of this just to avoid having to change
the comment!):
