To be clear about what it is you are doing:
You have a junction, lets call it "foo".
1) If you do "/bin/ls foo" the content of foo is listed, yes?
Yes it works; /bin/ls /dev/fs/C/foo
2) If you do "cd foo ; /bin/ls" then you get the error message stated in the first post, yes?
No error, but it displays the root of /dev/fs/C, NOT /dev/fs/C/foo? If I go one directory deeper. i.e. /dev/fs/C/foo/foo2 and perform a /bin/ls; I receive the "ls: fts_read: No such file or directory.
3) Do you get any output, besides the error message in case 2 ?
Nope, truss returns.

lseek(0, 1, 0) lseek returned 0
lseek(0, 0, 0) lseek returned 0
exit(1) process exited with status 1

4) If in 1 and 2 you replace "/bin/ls" with "/usr/local/bin/ls" is the output identical?
Yep, same problem. i.e. listing incorrect directory, when you go deeper into the junction you receive the fts_read error.
5) If you do "cd foo ; /usr/local/bin/ls -U" what happens ?
Same as 4, the command returns /dev/fs/C/ as apposed to /dev/fs/C/foo.
