I'd liek to ask how this is possible, is this something to do withblocks on the filesystem. And how does the command: find /tmp -type d-empty, what parameter does it use to find an empty directory?

I believe that it calls fstat() on the directory after opening it, anduses the st_nlink field in the result. An empty directory will have twohard links.
