Ahhhh.  That one gives the official excuse to apply the band-aid.
You quoted from their documentation

    Do not end a file or directory name with a space or a period.
    Although the underlying file system may support such names, the
    Windows shell and user interface does not.

As this test _is_, unlike the cited patch that was not about a
directory with a funny name, about parsing a patch and applying it
to a path with a directory with a funny name, I am tempted to keep
the test with the filesystem, instead of replacing it with the one
using the "--cached" that Peff suggested.  I am _also_ tempted to
add that "--cached" thing (instead of replacing), though.

Thanks
