I'd rather not back these out: the old code in iomonad.c was a bug,
and the old code in the Hugs version of System.Cmd was a kludge around
that bug -- they were a road to backslash hell.  I'd rather fix anything
that depended on the bug.

But I can't see what's causing these errors.  That path is certainly
wrong, but I don't see where it's coming from.  Is it in your Registry?
Please send me your logs.
