Path problems with trailing dot

[Stefan Schuerger]

Today I noticed with streamripper that Cygwin appears to have a problem
with trailing dots in paths:

> mkdir test. ; echo > test./test2
bash: test./test2: No such file or directory

The trailing dot disappears and cannot be used in paths. This seems to
be a DOS legacy of either NTFS or Windows.

Is there anything in the queue to fix this?

Regards,

Stefan Schuerger
