Thank you very much! Your suggestion works as a drop-in replacement
for the while loop. However, it seems that multiple userspace apps
can't access remote files at the same time. Currently, if a directory
takes a long time to be accessed (simulated by a sleep(20) call in
ListJobHelper::receiveEntries), all new requests to kioFuseReadDir are
stalled until the 20 seconds is up. This undesired behavior is shared
by the while loop, so it's not a regression.

I'm thinking sleep() is not a good simulator of KIO slave latency
because it freezes KioFuse entirely. Any suggestions on a better way
to simulate a slow network?

Thanks again,
Vlad

PS: The KDE4 port of KioFuse is now in
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/libs/kiofuse .
