Done, with a couple more such blunders.  My favorite is this (from
cedet/semantic/bovine/gcc.el):

                (when (file-accessible-directory-p path)
                  (when (if (memq system-type '(windows-nt))
                            (/= ?/ (nth 1 chars))  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                          (= ?/ (nth 1 chars)))    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                    (add-to-list 'inc-path
                                 (expand-file-name (substring line 1))

which evidently wants to make sure the file name is in absolute form.
