end
with a slash

Comment(by jhpalmieri):
I've given this "major" priority because any user who sets their DOT_SAGE
to a string without a trailing slash ends up getting their home directory
polluted with Sage lazy import cache files. For example, on skynet, I
have
{{{
export DOT_SAGE="/home/palmieri/.sage_$HOSTNAME"
}}}
and I end up with many files in /home/palmieri: one for each host on which
I build and Sage, one for each version of Sage. Fortunately the files
start with a dot so they're hidden, but still, it's not a good situation.
(I can fix this for my situation by adding a trailing slash, but I
shouldn't have to.)
