Once again, all of these clients are trying to be 'too clever' about the path names ...
Now that you have me thinking about it, a work around would be to just forget about drive letters and make it look like a normal, Unix hierarchical filesystem. (This is the way the sandbox mode works.) To change a drive letter one would have to do a 'site' type of command, or change to a pseudo-directory that actually changes the drive letter. For now, file bug reports against the clients that are too smart for their own good. None of the command line clients (including lftp) have this problem.
