I think the test for file-remote-p is covered by the first line of the
func so it's not needed in the dir condition bit, per below.


I still think "/" might as well be used unconditionally though.  The
reason I'm still banging on about that is that there's probably 3 or 4
other places in emacs which also don't care about the current directory
when spawning a program.  They would make use of the same idiom,
whatever it might best be.  (I arrived at this first when some of my own
code bombed in a non-existent default-directory.  I've seen it in other
people's code too.)
