I'm posting this here because I don't know of a more appropriate group and
I suspect the problem is specific to the DJGPP port of GNU ls, though I
don't have GNU ls on my UNIX machines to test this theory.  Please re-post
if this isn't the right group.

I have a directory 'f:\x' which contains a few files (including, for example
'file.zip').  If I am in 'f:\' and I do `ls x` everything works fine.  If I
try `ls -p`, or any of the other switches I've tried off-hand, it throws up
all sorts of errors about 'ls: xfile.zip: No such file or directory
(ENOENT)'.  It doesn't seem to be anything special about the letter x as the
directory name, but it does only fail with single-letter directory names.

	Mark.
