If Path is intended to be platform independent, then
these two paths could represent the same location:

converted to?
Are these actual valid paths? I thought Linux used '/' and Mac used ':'.
"c:d" is a valid directory name on Linux. :]
Right. I didn't phrase that at all well. In Steven's examples, which
are the path pieces? I'm guessing
'a', 'b', 'c:d', 'e'; and
'a', 'b', 'c/d', 'e'.
