Actually, the problem was that I had a directory named "*.*".

2. Comment by jimcbrown Feb 21, 2013

That's a valid name. The code should be able to deal with this.

3. Comment by mattlewis Feb 21, 2013

I agree. But it's important for the diagnosis.

In Windows (tm) systems, a folder/file cannot have certain characters in their name. They cannot have any of the following ...

\ / : * ? " < > |

Yes, this was on an ext4 filesystem, where the only characters you can't use are NULL and /.

I reproduced this on Linux/32bit on an ext3 file system.
