+Your change won't help, since length is 1 and the string is the empty
+string. The exception is correct. We should try to get where from the
+empty string comes from: likely your sw depends on getting a non-empty
+string there (if this is windows code, for example, that asked a drive
+name, like C:, D:, and there are no drive names in unix filesystems).
