Fileselector: missing "parent directory" on Macdrive-mounted drives

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Reported by EAB user "Akira":
(...) In some volumes, when I try to load or save something, as I enter 
directories, I can't go to PARENT DIRECTORY. I think this happens only in my 
Mac volumes (mounted on the PC by Macdrive). (...)
It's totally missing. It's only happening on my external, HFS formatted drives. 
I assume it's some sort of conflict with the way Macdrive maps the HFS drives 
in the system. every other application works transparently, though.

At the moment, the Windows version trusts readdir() to enumerate ".." if the 
directory has a parent.
From this report, it seems it's not always true.
Testing with "network" mounted drives letters, it seems also buggy:
- some subdirectories don't show .. even though I have the rights to navigate 
there
- The root of one drive shows .. (a false positive)

In any case, note that even when the "parent directory" entry is missing, you 
can type ..<enter> in the Filename to go up one directory (except on 
Amiga-based OSes).

Fixed in r1994, but might need a test on Linux, especially with and without 
"show hidden files/directory" option

Woops sorry. This and other unix-specific errors are fixed by r2006.
Tested on Debian (lenny)
