Comment (by dd32):

 I'm not happy with the combining logic in that patch, primarily for the
 ../ case, which is the only edgecase that would really cause an issue

 I've just taken a look around, and this code (once create_function is
 removed) looks like it might fit the bill better: http://www.liranuna.com
