ls -l gives "?---------" and root has no permission

[hanasaki <hanasaki@hanaden.com>]

Below is the output from root doing an ls -l of a specific file and of
the directory... Anyone ever seen this before?  a rebuild tree from a
booted knoppix disk fixed things for awhile and now this is showing up
again.  thanks
