Thanks for the report. Yes, the text is a bit off. The text in POSIX.1-2018 Section 4.13 ("Pathname Resolution") is helpful in pointing to a better wording. How about the following as a replacement text: If a pathname ends in a '/', that forces resolution of the preceding component as in Step 2: the component preceding the slash either exists and resolves to a directory of it names a directory that is to be created immediately after the pathname is resolved. Otherwise, a trailing '/' is ignored. I'm closing this bug report for now. Please reopen if you think something still needs fixing. -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
