The problem is presumably somewhere in the while loop which currently
starts at line 476 in glob.c. fn is successively set to all the files in
the current directory in turn, or should be. Either the zreaddir() is
returning the right files, or it isn't. If it is, there may be a problem
with stat() further on. If it isn't it's hard to see what to do. But
until we know more information about what's actually happening on this
particular system, there's nothing we can do.
Something else to try, though I didn't get an answer to the last lot: do
you have MARKDIRS set? If so, unset it and see if it now works. That
would certainly incriminate stat(), since now it doesn't try to stat() the
file, so try `ls -ld /drives/swapdisk' and see what that gives, and if you
have dynamic loading, `zmodload stat; stat -rs /drives/swapdisk' and see
what that gives.
