According to man page -A option is always set in ls(1) for root user.
This violates POSIX-2008
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/ls.html
Despite -A option behaves like this at least since 1993, I propose
to remove this POSIX violation.
Those who need it may set 'alias ls=ls -A' in their profiles.
In my opinion this
http://gitweb.dragonflybsd.org/dragonfly.git/commitdiff/ff1f883e7d9ded50242023cf33d508f7e8511298
is a bad solution, actually not a solution at all.
