are you going to send the patch upstream?  The usage of leading double
slashes to specify implementation-defined paths is backed by SUSv3
(See http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/xbd_chap04.html,
 Paragraph 4.11), so this is a portability issue which should be fixed
 upstream.


Thanks,
