Bash 2.02.1, cygwin b19.2 + binary mounts
Consider: ln -s //c/temp /tmp
then, from bash type
ls -l /tmp
which correctly outputs
lrwxr-xr-x [...snip...] /tmp -> ../../../temp
however
ls -l /tmp/.
incorrectly outputs
lrwxr-xr-x [...snip...] /tmp/. -> ../../../temp
it should output the same as
( cd /tmp ; ls -l )
ls -lL /tmp works as expected.
