So it's now two problems, and I think this is my final comment:
1. is_relative_to_cwd() I continue to think is a bad name for something concerned about ".." (plus on Windows not
havinga drive letter other than the current one); the "normal" meaning of "relative path" is merely "not absolute"
2. if this proposed new function is to replace some uses of is_absolute_path() then I'm afraid I'd not picked up on
that(as Bruce did) and have no opinion on whether it's a good idea or not, and am not qualified to be the one doing
thecode investigation (not enough knowledge of the code, it's beta time, and I'm frantically short of time just now
aswell, sorry)
