TC7rc5 - Directory Tree not correct when creating ..\newdir

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Sorry I have to correct me. It also crashes on Windows 95. I used an older TC version unintentionally on this system.

Still the access violation error when creating "c:\temp\....\newdir".
I don't get any access violation, just an error that the directory couldn't be created.
Still no entry in treeinfo.wc when creating "..\newdir" or "...\newdir" etc when you are in the root dir.
Why should ANYONE want to do such a thing?
Is that relevant? Shouldn't it be foolproof?

In a DOS box on Windows 98 more than 2 dots work fine. Did it not also work in Microsofts MS-DOS 3.3 and later (and maybe sooner) ?
