Ah, I didn't notice that in the backtrace, that was well spotted by Glen.

Because I like to live life on the edge, I decided to mount my user
directory from my drive D:, following a procedure much like this one:

http://caskater4.blogspot.com.au/2007/09/moving-your-data-where-you-want-in.html

something like this:

 1. xcopy /E /H /O /X /Y /I C:\Users D:\Users
 2. rmdir /S /Q C:\Users
 3. rmdir "C:\Documents and Settings"
 4. mklink /J C:\Users D:\Users
 5. mklink /J "C:\Documents and Settings" D:\Users

I'm not in front of that computer right now but that sounds as though it
has something to do with it.

could it be that there is two ways the path is expanded in easypg? and
they return different results?
