Thanks. My primary concern with the patch was actually that it looks like mere code churn that introduces an error by not using is_dir_sep(). This is now settled. But still, without a justification why the slashes should be cleaned up, the patch looks like code churn. You can ignore me if it is obvious for others why we need the patch. -- Hannes
