[Ecls-list] truename bug?

[Gábor Balázs]

It seems it still doesn't handle directory names in file form.

ecl -norc
ECL (Embeddable Common-Lisp) 11.1.1
(git:15d1c6dfdf74b171bc79477d1d0105cde8297219)

(truename "..")  ; => #P"/home/bege/../" ; bad
(truename "../") ; => #P"/home/bege/"    ; ok

Maybe this would be good to have too...
