. First, you really ought not to store directory IDs and expect them to remain

. supports or may support in the future volume types with non-fixed directory
. IDs - IDs that are fixed only for the duration of a remote mount.  

One such OS is A/UX, where the stored IDs are explicitly stated to be
illegal.  Even without AppleShare, if you run on A/UX, stored id's won't
work.
