You use find_last_dir_sep() which takes care of "Windows uses
backslash" issue. Is this function expected to be fed something
like "C:\My Files\foo.txt" and more importantly "C:\My Files"? Or
is that handled by a lot higher level up in the callchain? I am
reacting the comparison of path->len and 1 here.
Also is the input expected to be normalized? Are we expected to be
fed something like "/a//b/./c/../d/e" and react sensibly, or is that
handled by a lot higher level up in the callchain?

OK, so this was given "///foo/bar" in "remaining" and appended
'foo/' to "next". I.e. deduping of slashes is handled here.
POSIX cares about treating "//" at the very beginning of the path
specially. Is that supposed to be handled here, or by a lot higher
level up in the callchain?

This being 'static' would probably mean that this is not reentrant,
which goes against the title of the patch.
