Tim Golden added the comment:

I put a bit of work in on this this morning, following Mark's suggestion 
(msg138197) since that's the "canonical" approach. Unfortunately, it completely 
fails to work for the most common case: the root folder of a drive! The 
documentation for FindFirstFile explicitly precludes that possibility.

It looks as though  GetVolumePathName is the way to go. I thought I'd 
previously found some instance where that failed but, ad hoc, I can't make it 
fail now. I'll try to rework Atsuo's patch against the current posixmodule.c.
