Arguably it isn't even against the documented behavior, since a component starting with a slash an absolute path.

I'd be in favor of preserving the drive when encountering a component starting with a separator. Not sure of the value in changing the behavior in older versions - apparently I've never encountered this before, and I feel like I should have.
