Note that the DOS/Windows INT 21h API will accept either forward or back-
slashes in any pathname (all pathname-processing functions internally do
a TRUENAME, one of whose effects is to change all forward slashes to
backslashes).  Unfortunately, that still doesn't help the apparent UNC
confusion with two consecutive slashes after the drive letter....
