Built on migw32, and no trouble, thank you
(I didn't do coverage tests, sorry).

But we must remember, my raise of issue is the incorrect usage of
IS_DIRECTORY_SEP.  There are still more in fileio.c and more.
(I really expect remove the check of '\' from IS_DIRECTORY_SEP, and
handle '\' only where it is necessary, and things wolud be better)

Yes, you are right. I mean, maybe, the case of using some remote file
system.  You can check by yourself their (our?) usage if you like.
Some seems still using shift-jis, not cp932.
