Yes, it is a cheap test, nobody will feel the difference. One could argue 
about the precise 'count' values being used ...

... here. But IMO it does make sense preserving the function's overall 
structure to allow testing with different 'count' values if necessary. Because 
that way this test could e.g. guard potential bugs when server's Treaddir 
handler is rolling back (or not) the dir offset for instance, which server has 
to do (or not) according to this 'count' value and the precise file name 
length of the individual directory entries.

Whatever precise 'count' tests are desired, it would only mean a one line 
change here.
