Sounds like canonicalize_path() needs to be applied a bit sooner than
it is.
BTW I think canonicalize_path() is a few bricks shy of a load yet:
I'm not sure it works well with Windows drive-letters, and it definitely
will strip significant slashes when given input like '/' or 'C:\'.
Feel free to fix those problems while at it...
