I'm not an expert on this, but Windows uses '\' instead of '/' as  
directory separator. You can see an example output if you look at the  
documentation of realpath() in the comments here:  
http://php.net/manual/de/function.realpath.php.
Maybe PHP accepts path using C:\ and C:/ notation, but our path  
building function is still wrong and will compute wrong paths, no?
