lost+found entries

I just found several directories in /lost+found, and when I cd into any of
them I find my self in /, if I do an ls -l of any of the directories it
returns a list of /lost+found. See abreviate example below.

Anyone run into this?
Question is what to what to do?

This is Solaris 8, and I've seen it before in 2.6, never had a chance to
pursue it then, but I sure would like to figure it out now and deal with
it.

Thanks.

Pete
