120617 - If Moz folder has '/', we end up writing RDF files to a hierarchy next to app folder

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

- 1/16/01 opt mozilla bits on macosx

Give your Moz folder a name like "1/16 Moz"
Start, quit

When you're done, at the same level as the folder with the app in it, you'll
have a hierarchy that looks like:
1
  16 moz
    Mozilla
      Contents
        MacOS
          Chrome
            .....

something tells me that's wrong.

Hmm... bummer, we can't fix bug # 113894 without getting ALL usages of
nsFileSpec out of RDF (bug # 78013 and bug # 36972) as well as tweaking Necko in
another spot I found regarding slash/colon encoding (in addition to the change,
or one like it, that was included in the changes of bug # 113894).

So, since the tree branches in the morning, I just reopened bug # 113894 and
backed out its fix.

An uber-patch for getting all nsFileSpecs out of RDF and getting Necko slash
encoding to be properly handled can go into after the tree opens for 0.9.9
