I am not sure the speed is 10X faster vs directory-files, especially
when sorting the resulting list of `file-name-all-completions'.

Also it seems the function is still inflooping even with the check of
file-symlink-p (a bug of file-name-all-completions ?).

My own function is working fine using (directory-files+file-attributes)
with decent performances, but if I try to use 
(file-name-all-completions+check "/$") it infloop also.

PS: Sorry if I sent two mails off list.
