I did it again, from emacs -Q, with the Emacs 26.1 pretest.

I tried with M-x load-library ls-lisp.el, and
I tried with M-x load-library ls-lisp.elc.  And I
think that neither should be needed, since Emacs
on MS Windows (which I'm using) uses ls-lisp by
default.

I still see what I reported earlier: the property
is on the directory name (but not on the /).

I'm guessing that the Emacs 26 you're using is
something later than the pretest.  Or else the
difference has something to do with the platform.

HTH.
