  I wasn't sure why that was needed but since the man page states

"path is the pathname of any file within the mounted file  system"

so okay we have to get back to the directory which is an existing file.

  Okay, we really need to error out if not on NFS (I can't think of
  another kind of filesystem which would exhibit the same behaviour)
