Dear gnulib devs,

In the GNU Octave community with run into a problem with canonicalize functions.
It is not clear yet, but it seems that '/' is used for path regardless
of the platform.
One of our devs, Rik, reported this recently

Is this a bug in gnulib?

Thanks

​Why it is a problem? I thought windows can use "\" and "/" interchangeably.​

 

​I.e. ​ans = D:\folderA/folderB/file_a.txt is a correct PATH in windows.
