[Sorry for the delay in responding]

Set a breakpoint or several in SGPath::validate, but probably on line 341 which is the failure case. Notably that code uses realpath() to normalize the path before any checks are performed on validity.

You might also want to use a conditional breakpoint on line 315, if the input path matches the one which is failing.

(Conditional breakpoints are awesome!)

Kind regards,
