Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something, but I can't see how an empty

Because on *NIX you can

    join '/', @subdirz;

and get a leading '/'.

That's true, but the confusion here is my fault: I meant that the 
leading *directory* (from splitdir()) was an empty string to indicate 
an absolute path, not the *volume* (from splitpath()).
