Seems like a bug to me, especially since the path name in second line
is obviously garbled.

Many Unix-born programs assume that any file name which doesn't begin
with a slash is a relative file name.  Seems like this is another case
of such lossage.  (When porting a package, I usually grep the entire
source tree for strings like '/' and "/", just to hunt down all these
cases.)

Would you please consider locating this bug in the GCC sources and
posting a patch?  Thanks in advance.
