It appears to be because of the use of `NOFOLLOW_LINKS` here https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.base/share/classes/java/nio/file/Files.java#L808. To me this appears to be something that either needs to be clarified in the the `Files.createDirectories` API or addressed/fixed there. I have asked for inputs on this from others who have more knowledge of this area.

Okay, thanks @jaikiran .
