Subject: Is com0 a reserved name ?

When I attempt to create a directory name com0 (no not for the device) I get
"mkdir: `com0' exits but is not a directory.  No matter where I attempt to
make the directory I get this message.  If I create the directory under the
windows cmd shell and then do a ls the directory will appear as
"crw-rw-rw-".
