I am on windows. I asked the question on gnu.emacs.help on the desired behavior of (file-name-directory ...) which was related to my problem. The designed behavior of this function is to strip away the file from the string and return the directory portion. It does not check for file or directory existence. So, if the argument does not end with a slash, the string before the slash is stripped away as the file name.
