[LLVMdev] Patch for Path.inc on mingw

[Jeff Cohen]

Can you give an example of a path that isValid() incorrectly claims is 
invalid?  I'd rather not put in Unix code into Win32 code if I can avoid 
it.  It's also possible this is a real bug; i.e., it would incorrectly 
claim a valid Windows path is invalid.  You could insert a printf that 
prints out invalid paths.
