--- Comment #3 from Timothee Cour <timothee.cour2 at gmail.com> ---
> That's expected - __FILE__ returns a relative path whereas if you set -J/ it would now require an absolute on.

That is incorrect, as you can check with `pragma(msg, __FILE__);`
__FILE__ returns either a relative or absolute path depending on how the file
is given on command line. As you can see in my original example, `dmd -J/
/path/to//file.d` __FILE__ will be absolute.

> 4) -J/ is quite an anti-pattern

That's irrelevant, I could've used any other path that contains a `//`, eg:

`dmd -J. -o- .//main.d` also fails

Like I said in the original post (please re-read more carefully):

"problem when a path argument given to dmd contains a '//' instead of '/':"

Note that -I has no problems with paths that contains a `//`.
