That's what I thought.  I already have 'i' in my flags (-rpti) so I'm kind
of at a dead end.  I found one other post on the web where someone was
having a similar problem.  He had 28 million files in his system, and
upgrading to 3.0 solved it.  I guess that's going to be my ammunition in
the battle for getting these systems upgraded.  Till then I guess it's
going to be some kind of post-transfer job with the ls command.
