DOS/Windows file names can be gray, not only white or black.  Examples
include \abc and d:foo.  While not entirely free of ``current''
something, they are much closer to absolute file names than to
relative file names, in the sense that you don't prepend cwd to them
to get an absolute file name (which is what 99.99% of programs
_really_ want to know when they are testing a file name for being
absolute).
