It is a NUL delimiter, not a NULL delimiter.

I see that this already made it to `next`. I saw that because it breaks
the build of Git for Windows (this was not noticed earlier because other
compile failures prevented the tests from running), as now the test cases
173 and 177 of t0060 fail (*not* the newly introduced 163).
Here is the output with -v -x:

For comparison, this is how it succeeds in an Ubuntu VM:

The reason that this fails on Windows is that the POSIX->Windows path
mangling of the MSYS2 shell strips the trailing . from "/some/directory/."
when converting it to "C:/git-sdk-64/some/directory", and for a good
reason: most Windows programs do not handle the trailing "." very well.
One very, very ugly workaround for this newly-introduced breakage would be
this:

The reasons this is ugly: we specifically test for *Unixy* paths when we
use $PWD, as opposed to *Windowsy* paths when using $(pwd). We do this to
ensure a certain level of confidence that running things such as
git clone --recurse-submodules /z/project/.
work. And now that does not work anymore.
So where to go from here?
