How can we reproduce the crash?

when I try to Test local package I run "bun install -g ." it throws this error "panic(main thread): Internal Error: Do not pass posix paths to Windows APIs, was given '\package.json'. Please open an issue on GitHub with a reproduction. oh no: Bun has crashed. This indicates a bug in Bun, not your code."

Relevant log output

Duplicate of #13806.

Also if you bun link and bunx <package_name>@link:<package_name> you can test your package locally (though it would be nice if this was easier).
