I believe Hannes pointed out that there were some work left to be done
on it ("enable backslash processing in setup.c:prefix_filename()"),
and I didn't spot a new version after that. He also pointed out that
enabling backslash processing would cause you to lose the ability to
escape special characters, but it sounds to me like this is something
that simply "comes with the territory" of supporting win32-paths in a
POSIX-ish environment, and is already the governing convention in
Cygwin. But I'm not an expert on this topic; Cygwin is not something I
usually care much about.
