On Windows, both forward and backslash are valid separators. In
22d550749361 (subtree: don't fuss with PATH, 2021-04-27), however, we
added code that assumes that it can only be the forward slash.

Let's fix that.

This might be more clearly written as

    base=${0##*[/\\]}

?

(And then maybe it doesn't need a separate variable, and can still be
written in-line?)

True. For some reason, this did not work in my tests (probably because I
confused `#` with `%` or put the wildcard on the wrong side, or
something).

Will fix.

I am not in favor of inlining here. Three times. It is too complicated a
construct for a casual contributor. At least giving it a name (where
"basename" would make even more sense than "base", I just realized)
alleviates this problem _somewhat_.

Ciao,
