AFAICS this only happens if you actually have '.fricas.input' in
the home directory.
There are actually two troubles:
1) errors in .fricas.input are fatal, I have now a fix for this one
2) gcl does not tolerate double slashes in filenames, so we need
to modify our paths to avoid them (this potentially affects more
things).
