Honestly, because of the scope of bb99e328, I cannot say for sure, but
my inclination is to answer "No."

The current fix is strictly related to handling paths that include two
or more references to the previous directory, whether or not one of them
abuts a reference to the current directory (as in the bb99e328 fix).

Regards,
Jim
