I can reproduce these problems as well
results follow
LFN =y
binaries (rm.exe ) from clio from Sept-04-2001
system with LFN driver without LFN driver
NT 4.0 Wks SP 6 #1 #1
W2k Adv Srv SP2 #2 #3
#1 will not change to .libs/libstdc++.lax directory, returns with ENOENT,
remains in the original directory from within rm -ri was run
#2 returns with ENOENT, switches to the root directory
#3 will attempt to remove root directory
These results suggest that it is set current directory call that is broken
under w2k ntvdm (int 21h, ah=3bh)
If there are no issues with Win9x (when lfn=y) then perhaps this would be
easy to fix this if it was possible to distinguish W2k from NT 4.0
But since it's not possible then we should check if the absolute path, the
program changed to, is the same as the absolute path
the program was supposed to enter.
