While gnuclient does have problems with DOS absolute paths and path separators (this part of your patch is good), I don't see how changing (for example), "c:/foo" into "/c/foo" is going to work; with this, gnuclient is going to look for file "foo" in directory "/c" of the current drive, and not in "c:/".
