        Hi.  I have a dir ~/camera which is actually /home/dylang/home[*]/camera

[*] This is an NFS mount.

in /home/dylang
cd camera
mv ../camera-010.jpg ./
doesn't work.
Even though BASH 2.04 sees ../ as /home/dylang, MV sees it as /home/dylang/home !! 

Thus the wrong parent dir is chosen, and I curse GNU mv :(
