Problem with relative path containing nonexisting directory

- Subject: Problem with relative path containing nonexisting directory
Hi,
I'm having problems compiling EGLIBC in Cygwin. I think the reason is
the following:
Doing "ls foobar/../" in a Cygwin terminal, where the directory
"foobar" does _not_ exist, still returns a valid file listing of the
current path.
Doing the same operation in Fedora, ls will print "No such file or directory".
Is this a bug in Cygwin ? Is there a configure option to enable the
Fedora-behaviour ?
Please CC me as I'm not a subscriber to the list.
Regards
Jacob
