yes, that was what I was afraid of.
but anyhow, did you try 0u?

yes.
but I have a feeling that the right fix would be something like:
string extension;
if (!ext.empty() && ext[0] != '.')
extension += '.';
extension += ext;
thus avoiding the whole issue. and imho simpler code too.
(according to the standard we should not need to check if ext is
empty, sine ext[0] should return '\0' when ext is empty, not sure if
we should count on that)
