What's happening is that Emacs discards "/." before it even looks
at the file. It always does that. This is not an inconsistancy;
on the contrary, Emacs is treating "/." in a consistent way
where other programs treat it specially.
That's not to say that what Emacs does is necessarily better.
But I don't want to try to change it.
