As a historical accident, /dev/ has been omitting "." (dot) from its directory listing and directory watcher implementations. This omission will soon be corrected. Downstream clients will need to handle this, usually by skipping this entry; existing clients have been updated.

Please reach out if you observe issues suspected of being related to this change.
