Well I haven't some across this syntax before, so I guessed it was 
GnuWin32-specific.
Having spent entirely too long on Google today, though, it seems I guessed 
wrong,
as it's a variation on the UNC format - \\<server>\<sharename>\...

So it looks like "." means "this machine" and "<DRIVE>:" can be used in place
of <sharename> to identify the drive.

Am I right?

Apparently there's also a "long unc" format e.g. 
\\?\UNC\<server>\<sharename>\<path>
or \\?\Device\CdRom0" but I guess GnuWin32 doesn't support that, as it doesn't
work for me.
