Mahadev konar commented on HADOOP-1995:
---------------------------------------
it looks like it would impossible without making Path os dependent ( able to
differentiate between windows and linux) but then it would involve different
application behavior on windows and linux. I am marking this as a later fix.
> Path can not handle a file name that contains a back slash

> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.14.1

>
> When normalizing a path name, Path incorrectly converts a back slash to a
> path separator even if the path name is of the unix style. This prohibs a
> glob from using a back slash to escape a special character. A fix is to make
> path normalization file system dependent.
