It also breaks ls of symlinks. E.g.:
$ ls -lF /var/crash /var/crash/
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 8 Mar 5 2001 /var/crash@ -> /c/crash
/var/crash/:
total 145202
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 wheel 2 Jan 9 14:44 bounds
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 wheel 2630180 Jan 9 14:45 kernel.4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5 May 19 1994 minfree

I think the slash should be stripped in the output at most.
