[darcs-users] darcs patch: Resolve issue1351: fix repository path handling on Windows (and 1 more).

[Salvatore Insalaco]

Windows path handling is still not optimal, but to fix it we should
probably make bold choices (like stopping to convert everyting to
"posix-like" format, as some kind of Windows path have no Posix
equivalent); this patch at least avoid an infinite loop inside darcs.

  * Resolve issue1351: fix repository path handling on Windows.

  ioAbsolute is supposing that takeDirectory will eventually lead to
an existing directory. This is true on Posix, where it will lead to
"/", but not on Windows, where it could lead to a non-existing unit or
an UNC reference to a non-existing server.
  This patch fixes this assumption, avoiding an infinite recursion.
