Works fine for me, but that is somewhat besides the point.

I was asking for feedback on whether this was a worthwhile path to follow
not whether my particular implementation had bugs or not.  I actually
marked the previous revision of path.cc so that I could revert to the
old way of doing things if people had problems.

I assume that since you didn't object to the words that you've moved on
to debugging the implementation.
