Subject: "Switch !O_CREAT case to use of do_last()" causes segfault in glibc

Hi Al,
commit 1f36f774b22a0ceb7dd33eca626746c81a97b6a5
Author: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

     Switch !O_CREAT case to use of do_last()

     ... and now we have all intents crap well localized

This commit is triggering a segfault when I try to open a spreadsheet in
openoffice:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Here is readdir.c:445 (from glibc-2.11):

#ifndef NOT_IN_libc
   __libc_lock_lock (dirp->lock);
#endif

Thanks.
