Possible cwd bug in emacs 20 and emacs21.

[Rob Browning]

This bug was just reported against emacs 20, and while emacs 21
doesn't seem to have the same response, it still doesn't open the
file.  It tries to make an ftp access instead:

  $ pwd
  /C:

  $ /home/debian/devel/emacs21/emacs-21.0.103/src/emacs Foo
  ----:---F1
  FTP Error: OPEN request failed: ftp: C: Unknown host

The original report for emacs 20 was:
