Wine didn't expand ${HOME} when creating this symlink. Delete it (d:)
and recreate it with ln -s ~ ~/.wine/dosdevices/d:
Upgrading from a quite old version I may add... ($VAR-style variables in
config are long gone, maybe a year now).

ls is Unix, you don't have access to it in wcmd. Use dir.

See above. Combination of two changes in Wine code.

The f:: (double-colon) links point to the (Unix) device behind the
Windows dir. They were created from your config.

Wine just created the symlinks from your config. You had com2 and com3
in it, so it created the link.
