You can also see this happen if you create a folder, and then use mv to move it onto itself:

mkdir /boot/home/testfolder mv /boot/home/testfolder /boot/home/testfolder it completes without showing any error, but if you then search for the testfolder it will be show as /testfolder and you can't get rid of it...
