Hi Des,
I suggest leaving 'subpathname as it is and correcting the directory to include the slash. Is there any reason this would not work?
The function 'ensure-directory-pathname looks like are real hack, appending a file-namestring onto a directory list passed to 'make-pathname. Namestrings are designed for parsing to pathnames, and are not intended to be used like this - this will break in subtle ways, such a namestrings with escaped characters, and there is the potential for character case issues.
Perhaps 'ensure-directory-pathname should just signal an error if the pathname includes a name, type or version.

Hi,
Please fix debbugs #647544:

I reported it on debbugs but actually it's from upstream.
In brief, what's the return value of this?
(subpathname "/usr/share" "common-lisp/source/")
I think it should be "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/", not "/usr/common-lisp/source/".
Thanks, Des
