bug with Cygwin - "ls .." within a link (directory)


Here is a bug with cygwin: "r" is a link to "/cygdrive/c/robertbody" and when I go into the link named "r" and I do "ls .." it is incorrect, and inconsistent with "cd ..; ls",
because in fact Cygwin is mishandling the link...... inconsistently with any linux/unix


On another note,
I reported a bug with "type ahead" while running a script (within a script within a script), and nobody wrote that they will take action, or to confirm it, so i wrote to Corinna directly, because it doesn't look like all the bug reports are properly addressed.
