I have something quite disturbing wrt to paths and case: starting 'emacs
-Q' from the same directory,
I can get 3 different values for default-directory:

1. "D:/Source/emacs/build-master/"
This is with a mingw64 shell, after doing 'cd /d/Source/emacs/build-master'
and running 'emacs -Q'

2. "D:/source/emacs/build-master/"
This is with a mingw64 shell, after doing 'cd /d/source/emacs/build-master'
and running 'emacs -Q'

3. "d:/Source/emacs/build-master/"
This is with a cmd shell, after doing 'd:' and 'cd
d:/Source/emacs/build-master'

I have not (yet) traced the origin but such paths should be canonicalized
to a single form.
Currently, tests occasionnaly fail because of these different forms.

Regards,

Fabrice
