We may still want to be stricter in what we accept when parsing a patch
bundle but that should be a separate issue.

FYI the tests pass on Windows with this patch

If I understand correctly the rationale for the test is that darcs might
historically have written out patches with the trailing / so we want to
keep accepting them?

No. The test only demonstrates that the inconsistent behavior observed
in the bug report no longer exists. As I mentioned right at the top when
I posted the patch, my opinion is that we should *not* accept such a
bundle. But this is a separate issue.
