Yes. In fact I have a solution here in my sandbox, I'm just making it a
little more robust before committing.
The problem isn't with prepending '/', but with path normalisation -
which got removed because it caused problems, but is now causing
problems :[.
I'm putting a workaround in place for the released setup, and a
different, better solution for HEAD... but one that will temporarily
break other stuff so isn't appropriate for release.
