[h-e-w] strange file dialogs

[Michael W Daniels]

This is under Emacs 21 and WinXP.

I use dired and angeftp to manage files on a remote site. For the first 
time under Emacs 21, I tried to create a directory on the remote site 
(using the Immediate menu) and the normal WinXP file selection dialog came 
up. This seems to be a bug, since I wasn't trying to do anything with my 
local hierachy. I tried typing in the name of the directory I wanted to 
create and clicked OK; the dialog closed but nothing else happened.

Is there a known workaround for this? I tried looking for customize options 
with "dialog" in their name, but that didn't help. Nor did looking through 
the dired options in general...
