[m-rev.] for review: library changes for `mmc --make' on Windows

[Michael Day]

Should that last slash be there?
Just quoting from "man 3 dirname":

path           dirname
"/usr/lib"     "/usr"
"/usr/"        "/"
".."           "."

It doesn't appear to be keeping a slash there.
I'm not sure how the Windows functions work, though.

Great, that will make it much easier to support paths the same way across
both platforms.
