Comment(by maphew):

 The disallowed leading dot in a file or folder name for Windows has been
 around since at least Windows XP. The workaround I've always used is to
 create the file/folder from a CMD shell instead of Windows Explorer (I
 didn't know about the trailing dot trick, thanks!), e.g.:

 {{{
 pushd %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
 mkdir .grass7
 }}}
