Fixed a bug with bjam not handling the '\' root Windows path correctly without its drive letter being specified. One effect could be seen by MkDir rule on such a path always attempting to create its base folder even if that folder already exists. For example if you attempted to create folder '\Projects\XYZ\BuildDir' it would incorrectly think that '\Projects' folder does not exist and attempt to create it - thus causing the whole build to fail due to the underlying OS mkdir command failing.

This was caused by the file_dirscan() function in the filent.c module not working correctly when passed '\' as its dir. It then messed up when formatting its file-selection parameter for the _findfirst()/findfirst() API and constructed it as '\/*' which caused that API to fail and return -1 which was in turn being interpreted as 'file not found'.
