I know that.  I never said that `expand-file-name' removed the prefix or that it
should remove the prefix.  In fact I said clearly that it should not.  I do not
want to remove _any_ of the prefix, including its slash.

I am not interested in obtaining the behavior of `substitute-file-name'.  I am
interested in obtaining the documented behavior of `expand-file-name', which
does not include collapsing consecutive slashes.

Can you tell me how to get that behavior?
