>Description:
There is a bug in sub_canonical_filename in that it cannot cope with
pathnames which begin with '\\' being passed to it.
>How-To-Repeat:
Set the UserDir to //foo/bar/*/public_html and attempt to access a
~ directory.
>Fix:
At line 30 of util_win32.c:
if (szFilePart < buf+3) {
strcpy(szCanon, buf);
// New stuff
if(szCanon[0]=='\\' && szCanon[1]=='\\')
szCanon[0]=szCanon[1]='/';
else
// End new stuff
szCanon[2] = '/';
return;
}
