I used to use a local version of filename_cmp which treated both / and
\ as directory separators. Barring the strict POSIX filename support
issue, which we've agreed can be handled by a user option, it worked
well enough. You would still need to use substitute-path to handle
drive names; this wasn't an issue for me, since I was running the GDB
testsuite, which uses "dir" heavily to find source files.
