lndir: Broken with latest cygwin cvs sources

Hi,

I just wanted to report that lndir on cygwin is broken with the latest
cygwin dll running on WindowsME.  When you run it, it sucessfully symlinks
the toplevel of the source dir, but then it hits ".." and craps out saying
it already exists.  This behavior does not happen on linux.  So, either
lndir needs to be modified to ignore ".." or cygwin needs to be modified
to stop spitting out that error.  Just thought I'd give a heads up, as
lndir is used in building XFree.  If you reply and feel that this is an
issue for the main list, feel free to cross-post.

Cheers,
Nicholas
