Thanks for trying it anyway, Joel, I wasn't at an actual computer yesterday.
Something like this works around the issue for me:
String path = null;
try{
path=new File("./").getCanonicalPath();
} catch (IOException handleMePlease) {}
LocalReference lr = LocalReference.createFileReference(path);
Directory directory = new Directory(getContext(),lr);
You need to get the "." and ".." resolved away, which getCanonicalPath()
does.
I think LocalReference should do this for you when you pass a File as in
your original example -- thoughts, Jerome, Thierry?
Also, I think LocalReference.getTargetRef() oughta return a LocalReference
(you'd have to cast it, but this should work).

This one is equally broken

This one doesn't compile, "The constructor Directory(Context, Reference)
is undefined"
