bug#13553: 24.3.50; incorrect usage of IS_DIRECTORY_SEP

I greatly appreciate your very quick work, thank you.

I looked through your fix of all functions
(parse_root, get_volume_info, readdir, read_unc_volume, 
logon_network_drive, star_worker, symlink, chase_symlinks)
one by one, and found good at first look.

I'll try build and check it next, anyway.

Yes, my `w32-get-true-file-attributes' is nil. (Isn't it default?)

As for coding symbol, not a few Japanese use 'cp932 not 'shift-jis I 
suppose.  But we need some notice for users.

Regards,
Shigeru
