(1) As is, I think the patch leaks memory.  SplitDirectoriesString's
API is not identical to SplitIdentifierString's.

(2) My inclination would be not to back-patch.  This change could break
configurations that worked before, and the lack of prior complaints
says that not many people are having a problem with it.
