If you use pain string concatenation you will certainly fail... but the os.path module might be of help.
I tried. os.path.join two full paths will return the latter. In my patch today, I discard the drive part of the second path, and do things like c:\destdir + c:\program files = c:\destdir\program files. This will fail if someone really want to do exec_dir = d:\program and prefix=c:\program... Bo
