This is where I get confused. In the example above, it looks like
"/master/tree" is the source directory to create the ISO. If
I run that on my source directory:

/usr/bin/mkisofs -R -quiet -print-size \
/home/KasRescue/Foo/.

I get back the followign error message and number:

Unknown file type (unallocated)
home/KasRescue/Foo/./..
- ignoring and continuing.
119247

Are you using cdrtools from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/
or one of the broken forks?

If I run the command on the ISO I just created with mkisofs:

/usr/bin/mkisofs -R -quiet -print-size \
/home/KasRescue/Foo.iso

I get back a different number AND NO ERROR MESSAGE
119309

What am I misunderstanding?

If the content of /home/KasRescue/Foo/ did not change, I would
expect a filesystem bug (asuming that you use the official mkisofs).
