(IO::Spec::Unix) method curupdir

Defined as:

method curupdir()

Returns a none Junction of strings representing the current directory and the "one directory up":

say $*SPEC.curupdir;                  # OUTPUT: «none(., ..)␤»
my @dirs = <. foo .. bar>;
say @dirs.grep(* eq $*SPEC.curupdir); # OUTPUT: «(foo bar)␤»

Neither foo nor bar are equal to the representation of the current or parent directory, that is why they are returned by grep.
