I just forgot ls-lisp-use-insert-directory-program. So here is a 
description on how to reproduce the problem:

Start Emacs like

  emacs --no-init-file --no-site-file --load=ls-lisp \
  --eval=(setq ls-lisp-use-insert-directory-program nil) ~/test


Then the dired buffer will contain something like

 /home/lh/test:
 total used in directory 9 available 3995032
 drwxrwxr-x   2 lh       lh           4096 Nov 15 08:34 .
 drwxr-xr-x  34 lh       lh           4096 Nov 15 08:33 ..
 -rw-rw-r--   1 lh       lh              9 Nov 15 08:34 foo

Place point on foo and do C bar <RET>. Then the dired buffer will contain

 /home/lh/test:
 total used in directory 9 available 3995032
 drwxrwxr-x   2 lh       lh           4096 Nov 15 08:34 .
 drwxr-xr-x  34 lh       lh           4096 Nov 15 08:33 ..
C -rw-rw-r--     1 lh       lh              9 Nov 15 08:34 bar
 -rw-rw-r--   1 lh       lh              9 Nov 15 08:34 foo
