Yes, the tests included Windows.

Not with Tomcat it isn't. The '.' is enough to always trigger a 404 unless
there actually is a directory with that name. I also tested without the '.'.

Tomcat has code that explicitly prevents this on any case insensitive file
system. It can be disabled if allowLinking is set to true but that is why there
is a huge security warning in the docs about enabling that on case insensitive
file systems.

As I previously stated, the behaviour described looks like a poorly configured
reverse proxy.
