This is unknown, but I took the following assumption from the tests; the 
original code was written in the
w98 style, C:\ remains 4 char long. I would assume that the changing of 
C:\ to C:\ wouldn't majority break applications,
but I don't know the way in which apps use the returns from this. It is 
possible that length could be checked, in which case things would break, 
but at least no buffer overflows will happen.
So, I believe using the 2k/xp method would probably work.
