Subject: hash_path_name fix for "dir/."

This is a MIME multipart message.  If you are reading
this, you shouldn't.

The attached patch fixes a bug in hash_path_name().  hash_path_name()
currently hashes foo and foo/ the same, but it will hash
foo/. differently.  The patch causes all three to hash to the same
value/inode.

(I've mailed this to cygwin32-developers before, but I wasn't on the
list at the time.  Lemme know if it has already been applied.)
