The behaviour seems intermittent but I've made a change that should fix it in the next version.


For what it's worth - this bug is still there in 6.16, running Windows XP Pro.

I'm using mIRC to write my own custom backup solution (nutty? maybe - but I tried everything else free + bundled out there and suffice to say that I think the authors are nuts.), and it throws an error on:
* /mkdir: unable to create 'f:\backup\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Themes\global'

However, the folder does get created. My work-around, currently, is to detect whether the folder that is trying to get created ends in 'global', and if it does, rename it 'global$ID$', where ID is a random string - making it unlikely that there was an original folder called 'global$ID$".

This is an odd bug, though - is there an internal variable called 'global' that's causing this?
