FCBS? I don't know when Daniel started coding, but handles have been supported since MS-DOS 3.3 at latest, so I wouldn't assume Daniel to remember those times that well? FWIW, I've never seen a DOS machine with equally named files and directories (nor such a machine with another DOS-like OS). In any case, I'd consider the reported behaviour (for Linux) buggy - is somebody going to fix it? Maybe the original reporter might add it to our bug repository?
