The gnulib fts is different from glibc API, and they can return
different results when called the same way.  See end of earlier thread
here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2021-07/msg00070.html

I'm not sure what could be done.  Perhaps adding a sentence to the
gnulib documentation stating that the gnulib fts is not a drop-in
replacement for missing fts functionality but a separate implementation
with different behaviour.
