On the NT or Win95 side, it allows you to attempt to create a file with a colon in the filename. This is allowed on Unix side but
not on PC side. On PC side, this should be recognized and forced to evaluate the colon as a drive letter indicator, defaulting to
present directory on that drive. This doesn't happen.
"c:autoexec.bat" tries to make a file in current directory named "c:autoexec.bat". It should recognize on PC side that the colon
designates C-drive, and default to current directory on C-drive. So if current directory on C-drive is FRED, the resulting file
should be created:
c:\FRED\autoexec.bat
