C: does not reference the root directory of a volume

I understand that. What I'm trying to get guidance on is how likely it is that people would use "C:" and not mean the root directory.

If I understand you correctly, what probably needs to happen is to immediately turn C: into the absolute path for cwd on that volume via getdcwd.

Is that right?
