It's not, It's a netatalk bug with adouble=osx but usedots not set. It
doesn't hide .foo file in enumerate.

Here something like  
/opt/Volumes/osx        "OSX" adouble:osx options:usedots
works, IIRC invisibledots is not in 2.0.3. without 'options:usedots' I
can reproduce your bug.

But you surely have some :2efoo files around like :2eDS_Store
and ._:2eDS_Store and now they are invisible and you're back to square
one, you have to rename or delete them.
