It works in 3.0-R:

(This is on a fat32 partition w/vfat)

I went to /dos/c/progra~1/

I have a directory "MicroProse" according to ls

cd MiCrOpRoSe

pwd gave me: /dos/c/progra~1/MiCrOpRoSe

I think the main problem here is that directories with spaces such as
"Program Files" will return to their non-vfat names (progra~1) for a
reason I don't have the experience to give.
