I see what you mean :-)

First thing, the bug is not reproducible : after loading the 32946 version
of GNUtunesDB.xml, then loading back the 32945 version, my iPod does not
work any longer !

The new limit seems to be 32767. So I give you the diff file between a
recursive ls with 32766 entries (iPod fine) and the same with 32767
entries (iPod out of order). (I can also send you the two ls outputs
tgzipped (800kB) if you want.)

The last entry is a "real" entry, i.e. a reference to a file that is 
referenced only once in the GNUtunesDB.xml.
