There also is a function which changes a path specification
into its canonic form, meaning that all redundant segments
are stripped. So although two paths which designate the same
target may not be equal, they can be tested for equivalence.
Hmmm, I'm not really sure what "equivalence" for file paths should
mean in the presence of hard/symbolic links, (NFS-)mounted file
systems, etc. Haskell's stateless (==) function doesn't really
make sense IMHO, but perhaps I've missed something in this epic
discussion... :-]
Cheers,
