Patch by Brian Hooper, somewhat augmented by GvR, to strip a trailing
backslash from the pathname argument to stat() on Windows -- while on Unix, stat("/bin/") succeeds and does the same thing as stat("/bin"), on Windows, stat("\\windows\\") fails while stat("\\windows") succeeds. This modified version of the patch recognizes both / and \. (This is odd behavior of the MS C library, since os.listdir("\\windows\\") succeeds!)
