[bug #25946] mv/cp/ls/cd cannot cope with leading dash (-) in directory names without path

[Eric Blake]

Update of bug #25946 (project coreutils):

                  Status:                    None => Invalid                
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #2:

And if you happen to encounter an older program that doesn't accept the magic
-- argument, you can always fall back to './-file' instead of '-file'.

By the way, this is a FAQ:
