Sorry, Ilya, it does not:
```python
>>> foo = "E:\\this\\is\\a\\test"
>>> foo
'E:\\this\\is\\a\\test'
>>> foo[2]
'\\'
>>> os.path.normcase(foo)
'e:\\this\\is\\a\\test'
```
We always want backslashes to be forward slashes for these specific paths
because Erlang is too stupid to use the correct path separator character on
Windows, it _always_ wants the UNIX separator. I'm not sure of any other way to
do this. Besides, there are other places in this script where we already use
the same `string.replace` syntax. Unless you want me to convert all of them...
:wink:
