How about such functions:

int	isDirSeparator ( char  c )
  {
        return ( c=='/'
#ifdef __DJGPP__
	            || c=='\\'
#endif
        ) ? 1 : 0;
  }


char * lastDirSeparator ( char * name )
  {
       char *s, *res=0;
       for (s=name; *s; s++) 
          if (isDirSeparator(*s))
              res=s;
       return res;
  }

So at least we would be able to avoid evil constructions like '\/' in file 
names
