Alexey, To my knowledge there wasn't anything removed, there was just a problem with how 6.X formed read() size when running on a Linux host headless supporting windows guests across the network. Grabbing strace output of what was happening showed 6.x using a read size of 1 with 32-bit windows guests. This resulted in simple things like a "Dir" of a directory holding 200 files to take minutes to complete. The 5.2 branch never had this problem. -- David C.
