That reminds me of a bug on Nexenta OS, which is based on an OpenSolaris kernel.
When sharing a ZFS filesystem via SMB/CIFS, and mounting this filesystem from a Linux 
client, we were hitting the same kind of thing.
The problem started at about 128 files in a directory of the Nexenta system.  The Linux 
client was then seeing 2 files for each file under Nexenta.  The more files in the 
directory, the more duplicates, triplicates, quadruplicates etc.. were seen.
Is this the same issue, or just a similar one ?
