The Apollo backup programs rbak and wbak seem to have a bug (feature ?)
in  sr10.1:
If you backup a directory with specifying a relative path as in
	$ wbak -dev ct0 -f 1 ./tex
and then read it in again with 
	$ rbak -dev ct0 -f 1 -all -rewind 
parts of the directory ./tex will be restored as .tex ! This would not
be too bad if at least all of the directory were restored as .tex. This
is however not the case, part of the directory is restored as ./tex.
