This patch ensures that local addresses under DJGPP using the special
form of path beginning "/dev/" are passed to external programs without
stripping the initial slash from the path. This special form of path
will be understood only by other DJGPP programs. Addresses of the form
"/dev/x/" are equivalent to the DOS path "x:\". Addresses of the form
"/dev/env/VARI" are equivalent to the environment variable "VARI".
