Use double backslashes for the path separators to workaround Microsoft
NMAKE brain damaging. Sometimes backslashes are treated as a quoting characters, and sometimes not, with no rhyme or reason that I can determine. Fortunatelly double backslashes in pathanmes don't seem to hurt (for the times when the backslash isn't treated as a quoating character). Whoever decided Windows should use backslash as a path separator should be shot. git-svn-id: svn://anonsvn.mit.edu/krb5/trunk@10575 dc483132-0cff-0310-8789-dd5450dbe970
