[issue26657] Directory traversal with http.server and SimpleHTTPServer on windows

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

Windows-only tests are fine, and certainly better than adding a new parameter just for testing.

Forward slashes are valid path segment separators on Windows 99% of the time, so that'll be why nobody has complained. Personally I prefer consistency, but not strongly enough to force a change here.
