Remove trailing (back)slash?

[Edgar]

Anyone have any idea how to remove a trailing (back) slash from a 
directory? I want to sanitize the user's input and prevent any double 
slashes in file paths.

I looked through the gnu make manual, but I can't find any function that 
seems to do what I want.
