What is the source code of your test program, and what version of C
library are you using?  On my system, opendir() is getting translated
to:

openat(AT_FDCWD, "/vdc", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

(It would have saved me time if you had sent me the source of your
test program, BTW.)

Cheers,
