Here's another one ;-)

Put an empty floppy into drive A:, and then type this:

  C:\> ls a:
  c:/djgpp/bin/ls: a:: No such file or directory (ENOENT)

This is on Windows 98.  On plain DOS 5.0, it gets more interesting:

  C:\> ls a:
  c:/djgpp/bin/ls: a:: No more files (ENMFILE)

`ls' from Fileutils 3.16 would simply print nothing in this case,
which is what I'd expect.

Curiously enough, I cannot get the same results with hard disks, only
with a floppy.
