Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the review.

I thought about it for a bit, and I can't seem to figure out why I
added it in the first place. My current sanity logic: Without a pb,
this function (make_dir_baton) generates a root baton. Whatever `path`
the user passes is ignored anyway- the root baton has `abspath` set to
`/`. With a `pb`, I MUST pass a non-null `path` -- there's probably
something about this I haven't thought about properly that's making
test 14 fail (there's an empty Node-path there). Either way, I don't
see where an assert fits into the picture.

Ok, I'll keep that in mind when I write more asserts.

True. However, abspath is a `char *` with no memory allocated to it: I
want whatever its value is to be allocated in `pool` since it's passed
around.
