John,

Looks like it should be a fairly easy fix and I was able to recreate it on
a Windows machine.  The issue seems to stem from the usage of how file
paths are built being treated as URLs.

An issue was created for this [1] and I should have a patch out shortly.

Thanks for reporting the problem!
