Should this be >=, so that endswith ("Hello", "Hello") returns true?

I believe you can use strcmp, which would avoid the last call to strlen.

Make the return type size_t too?

One extra indentation level.

dit_separator should probably be a const char *, for the same reason
as mentioned in the previous patch.

Maybe mention the exception for TARGET_SYSROOT_PREFIX?

Should these examples include quotes, eg:

  concat_path ("/first", "second")		=> /first/second

?

Also, those examples would be nice to convert to a selftest/unittest in the
newly created unittests/utils-selftests.c.  :)
