It seems to only happen with a root directory, for example: (make-directory "c:/foo/bar/baz/" t) (directory-files "c:/foo" nil nil nil t) => ("..") (directory-files "c:/foo/bar" nil nil nil t) => nil (first (file-attributes (first (directory-files "c:/foo" t nil nil t)))) => t so file stat *does* at some level recognize it as a directory.
