[OpenAFS-devel] ../ broken in a particular directory

I'm having problems with a certain directory which doesn't seem to 
comprehend "..". This doesn't happen in every directory, just this one 
and it's not causing any immediate problems for us. I thought at first 
that maybe I didn't have "l" privileges and that's why I got "No such 
file or directory" or the funky ? marks, but that was not the case. I 
imagine I've misconfigured something, but have no idea where to begin.
