Toon,
I'm afraid we're in trouble here. I could not find any way to tell if a name
is a directory or not under jam (it has some OS abstraction layer). And
adding such a functionality could be both hard (any VMS users here?),
and can make too much a change for merging back in Perforce Jam.
Are directory names with "/" at the end important?
