Review: Needs Fixing

Recursively stat()ing all parent directories all the way up to the root is a no-go. This will be a massive IO overhead.

I'd rather see a heuristic that simply checks for '/.' patterns in the ath string. This wont work for non-Unix like file systems, but it will have negligible impact on search performance.
