Summary: folder_list doesn't handle relative paths correctly on winxp

Initial Comment:
If I have a patch in a folder on the desktop, [folder_list] will default to that folder.  But if I then try to use relative paths like [symbol ../*( , my results will have the right path, but it will list the files in the parent of pd/bin.  In other words, relative paths default to the path where pd was started from, but the returned files have the path relative to the patch's folder prepended to them.

I confirmed it on Windows XP.  Plus I think I actually fixed it, and a bug
related to the Windows backslash bashing.  Here's the commits:
