Holy crap...this is going to be a bit more difficult than I thought.

You do seem to have two identical '.' directories at the root of the  
drive; no additional characters showed up.

They have to have different inode numbers or they would not (in  
theory) show up twice, but this is getting into "Let me repair myself  
to Google for a while" before I come up with an answer.

I'll have to see how Inventory X shows things, and see if that offers  
a clue.

Long story short, I think something went 'kablooey' in your disk  
directory at one point.
