The issue was reported in bugzilla quite some time ago. https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8967 However, while Walter's response on it basically indicates that we should just close it as "won't fix," we never actually did
It's worth noting that the discussion made it very clear that Walter's viewpoint on the matter was based on his own misunderstanding (ie, mistakenly failed to notice that `\\?\` != `\\.\`) He never actually made any comment after that was pointed out.
