char ')' '(' in path - any way to stop join, reduce from evaluating parenthesis?

r ebol[] dir: ')why/' dir2: '(not' ;** Syntax Error: Missing ( at end-of-paren ; version 2: ;dir: '(why/' ;dir2: ')not' ;** Syntax Error: Invalid path -- ;p: to-path join join '%/E/' dir dir2 p: to-path join '%/E/' reduce [ dir dir2 ] red[] ;dir: ')why/' ;dir2: '(not' ; *** Syntax Error: missing #'(' at '/E/)why/(not' ; version 2: dir: '(why/' dir2: ')not' ;*** Syntax Error: invalid path! at 'why/)not' ;*** Where: do path: to-path to-string reduce ['%/E/' dir dir2 ] Is version 2 a path traversal security issue? Thanks

dir: ")why/" dir2: "(not" to-file rejoin ["/E/" dir dir2] == %/E/%29why/%28not

Thanks, to-file reduce ["/E/" dir dir2] works as well
