This is not a bug. The name is quite valid, it just trips up the normal
win32 subsystem parsing. You can create or delete such a file name
within windows using the posix subsystem. You run into similar problems
with files named after the old reserved DOS devices, such as NUL and
AUX. Just one of those silly little choices Microsoft made over the
years.
If you wish, you can mount the filesystem with the windows_names mount
option to prevent yourself from doing such things.
