Charles-

I tested this on SunOS4.1.3U1, using both MFS and the 4.2FS.
Under MFS I saw the mkdir bar succeed but then the shell under
/tmp/foo could not stat .  No Panic.

Under 4.2FS :

$ mkdir bar
mkdir: bar: No such file or directory
$ pwd
pwd: getwd: can't stat .

No panic.  What version of SunOS were you running?  What filesystem?
