The only idiosyncrasies I can think of is that if neither "." or ".." are present, the directory will have a link of 1, instead of 2. And when listing the directory, those entries will not show up. Do you expect any of these to be corrected? It will require a more convoluted change. Right now, I think accepting the idiosyncratic behavior for the bogus filesystems is fine, as long as the correct filesystems continue to behave as before. Which seems to be the case here as far as my testing has shown. Thank you. Cascardo.
