Recently, some versions of /bin/ls have added a character to the permissions 
field to indicate alternate access methods.  See 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=504422#c10 .  A regexp in dired.el 
was changed to match the new pattern.

However, there is another regexp, dired-re-pre-permissions, in dired-xemacs.el 
which was not updated.  This leads to corrupted dired buffers, and can also 
lead to the buffer you're editing getting altered.. which is incredibly 
annoying.

Fix:

currently dired-re-permissions is

  "[-r][-w][-Ssx][-r][-w][-Ssx][-r][-w][-xstT]"

I believe it should be

  "[-r][-w][-Ssx][-r][-w][-Ssx][-r][-w][-xstT][ \.+]?"
