And conversely, it doesn't include readable dirs if they are not
searchable which can be even more surprising:

$ ls -l
total 2
drwxrwxr-x 2 chazelas chazelas 2 Jan  9 17:07 1/
dr--r--r-- 2 chazelas chazelas 3 Jan  9 17:17 2/
drwxrwxr-x 2 chazelas chazelas 2 Jan  9 17:07 3/
$ echo */
1/ 3/
$ echo */*
2/file
