-----------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have a bug on OSX.

I'm recommending against : in directory names.

edit: urls supporting my claim about ':'
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5923

It's not the most relevant document but the quote I'm looking for is correct:
    
http://documentation.apple.com/en/finalcutpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=3%26section=4%26tasks=true
    "You cannot use colons (:) in the names of files and folders because Mac OS 
9 (Classic) uses this character to separate directories in pathnames."

And to my point, my app has roots in Mac OS 9 and does not support ':' in the 
path.

> is now creating paths with colon':' in the path while technically a valid 
> unix filesystem character is unusual to see in common practice.
> And the reason why I'm creating this bug as it is affecting my app that has 
> roots in mac os where ':' was not a valid character.
> I would recommend: "%Y%m%d-%H%M%S"
