When you start Emacs on w32 default-directory will contain backslashes. 
I will look something like this "C:\\emacs\\u/".

This is a bit ugly and I just read one user complaint about this.

Why not add

   (setq default-directory (expand-file-name default-directory))

after decoding default-directory in `command-line' in startup.el. This 
will be somewhere around line 1118 in that file.



In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
