You really only need to send the request once.

I guess you're going to need to be more specific about the problem you're
seeing.  I got:

# sh test.sh
/
200
200
/c
200
200
/d
200
200
/usr/bin
200
200
/usr/lib
200
200

FWIW, I got the same results on Cygwin and Linux.  Perhaps it makes sense to
review the problem reporting guidelines before posting any follow-up:
