du: slosh/slash problem in windows build

[da Silva, Joe]

Slosh/slash problem in DU 5.3.0 Windows build :

Specifying "du c:\" results in lots of error messages like :

...\DU.EXE: cannot access 'c:\\/WINDOWS' : Permission denied
...\DU.EXE: cannot access 'c:\\/My Documents' : Permission denied
...\DU.EXE: cannot access 'c:\\/COMMAND.COM' : Permission denied
...\DU.EXE: (etc.)

OTOH, specifying "du c:/" works just fine. Also note that both
'/' or '\' work OK for specifying other directory paths, just
not the root directory. Windows 98, version 4.10.2222.

Regards,
Joe.
