All functions dealing with directory names are broken in various ways;
even (especially) the native/proprietary ones.  It's not so much that
appending a '\' breaks it.  It's that appending a '\' breaks one
function and failing to append a '\' breaks another function.

stat() is causing the most obvious errors, though.  stat() fails on a
directory name with a trailing '\' or '/'.
