Only sometimes, so this is unreliable; caveat emptor!  E.g.:

  D:\usr\eli\data>cd d:/usr
  The system cannot find the path specified.
  D:\usr\eli\data>cd /usr
  The system cannot find the path specified.

(As you can see from the prompt, that directory does exist.)

It looks like it only recognizes relative directory names with forward
slashes.
