Short answer: this is perfectly normal. What happened was that an IP address was added to the interface without a differentiating label.
Believe it or not, the "ifconfig" application is strongly discouraged because it has a tendency to dramatize situations like this. It would probably have been removed years ago if not for legacy support.
Anyway, if you want to understand a bit more about what is happening, take a look at this iproute2 documentation. They explain that although all alias addresses are secondary addresses, the inverse is not necessarily true.
Then try the following:
You will notice that after the first add, the output of "ip addr" showed the address, but the output of "ifconfig" did not. Additionally, when you added a label the second time, the output of "ip addr" still shows the address, but the output of "ifconfig" also show our new label. (which only says "eth0:alias" because we told it to - it could literally be anything)

Inside dir1, both dir2 and dir3 directories are present.
