I can reproduce the problem on Windows XP though I haven't had time to apply
the troubleshooting patch yet.

Another note: this code in gtk/menus.c:

~~~
    normalized_cf_name = g_strdup(cf_name);
#ifdef _WIN32
    /* replace all slashes by backslashes */
    g_strdelimit(normalized_cf_name, "/", '\\');
#endif
~~~

also changes the slashes.  I think this patch is essentially pushing that
processing closer to where the file name comes in.  I guess if we did that for
all input sources then this menus.c code could be removed.  (I don't know if
it's worth doing that or not, it's just a thought.)
