Happens in MS-DOS 6.2 too.  The sample problem is not as serious 
as you think because your example made us create a second subdirectory
but did not take us there at that point.  Hence it is empty.
The DEL *.* would have no effect after the bug took us there. 

Happens in other source and target drives too.

OK, having done more tests, I concede that the problem is there
where you _already_ had any two directories with the same name
and containing files.

For example, I have C:\TEMP, where I tend to throw newly downloaded
files.  As they are archived, I unpack them one at a time in
C:\TEMP\TEMP.  So both directories tend to have files in them.

It is not a new bug, so no cigar.  The LABEL command has a few
other bugs as documented in the Knowledgebase CD-ROM.
