Hello.

Should /dev/c expand to c: or c:/ with run through _fixpath? Since /dev/c
looks like an absolute path, I think it should expand to c:/ . Currently it
doesn't. Note that /dev/c/. expands to c:/ .

I'm wondering if there's some reason that it expands to c: .

I'm writing some tests for _fixpath. I'm doing this before I fix _fixpath to
cope with UNCs.

Thanks, bye, Rich =]
