That's the problem. http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/74454/somethings-special-about-dev-fd-3 >> Which is simply listing several files/directories in my home directory.

My home directory contains a symlink to the root filesystem (via ~/.wine/dos/devices/z: -> /), and this apparently causes the loop to be infinite. > What I find interesting is that the issue does not show when running as root.
