Nitpicky gripe: "fix_path" is a mighty generic name. How about
"fix_path_for_windows" or something like that? I don't think I'd
mark it inline, either.
More generally, the behavior of combining two (maybe) filename segments
seems overcomplicated and unnecessary. Why not just have it take *one*
argument and back-slashify that, without the concatenation behavior?
Then you'd have two calls instead of one at some of the call sites,
but that doesn't seem like much of a loss. The malloc'd strings are
getting leaked anyway. The function itself would reduce to pg_strdup
and a backslashification loop. Also, you could turn it into a complete
no-op (not even pg_strdup) on non-Windows.
