That '/' has nothing to do with path separators.  It's simply
a separator between a pointer and a length fields.  E.g.,

 @item Request:
 @samp{Fopen,@var{pathptr}/@var{len},@var{flags},@var{mode}}

@var{pathptr} is a pointer that points to the real path
in the inferior's memory, not a path string.
