[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I ran into the expand-file-name bug outside of Tramp, and fixed it by installing 
the attached patch into Emacs master. I hope it fixes Bug#26911 too.

With luck it (or something like it) might even bear on Bug#34834 too, so I'll cc 
this message there. (I don't use MS-Windows or Tramp so am not good at testing 
in those environments.)
