No, it's not in the caller.  It's in w32.c, whose functions almost
always manipulate encoded file names (because they shadow system
APIs).

You call file-attributes, which encodes the file name and passes it to
'lstat'.  The implementation of 'lstat' in w32.c then looks at the
last byte of the encoded file name to see if there's a slash or
backslash there.  Boom!

I will fix that.
