[wp-testers] File Permission Problems

[Stephen Rider]

Paul, could you add a trac ticket for this?  Do you know if it's  
specific to that folder or does it happen with any directory if you  
put the slash on the end?

Seems a small patch to strip slashes off that URL in processing would  
be in order.
