Because I want to know if it works in spite of the standard (i.e, it is 
not supported, but some drives accept it), or if it is part of the 
actual standard operation. 

As groepaz notes, it seems to work on the '41.  I can't see in the drive 
RAM where there are variables to keep track of two directory 
traversals.  Can anyone point me to the relevant locations?
