Comment:

 (In [80279]) Fix #7239, Stack overflow when calling
 create_directories(":D"). The reported problem was a symptom of an
 internal bug that caused path::filename() and path::parent_path() to fail
 on Windows for path(":"), and that in turn caused other functions that
 depend on filename() or parent_path() to fail, such as
 create_directories().
