This issue may be already sorted out. But anyway, I have put these 2
lines in my .emacs and that does the trick:

(require 'ls-lisp)
(setq ls-lisp-use-insert-directory-program nil)

Now, dired will use a lisp implementation of ls (which in fact, uses
directory-files-and-attributes internally). It works for me on OpenBSD.
