Comment(by karsten):

 Let's merge this patch now in order to get our estimates of recurring
 users back. We can still work on other approaches like computing shares
 offline or finding even better user number estimates. But right now, the
 directory shares are our only way to estimate user numbers, so let's fix
 them first.

 Jake tested this patch on trusted which then reported non-zero directory
 request shares again.

 The patch is in branch fix-1564 in my public repository.
