df failes to list directory-mounted volumes

Windows NT and XP can mount volumes on directory mount points instead
of or in addition to drive letter mount points.
If a directory mount point is used, df delays for an abnormally long
time prior to output, then fails to produce the complete listing.
Using XP's tools to unmount the directory-mounted volume lets df run
at normal speed; remounting slows it again, still without the volume
listed.
