Details:

The last master branch doesn't change the right folder to sabe its output
files on Windows. Looking at the source of 'src/data/file-name.c' seems like
it is making a mistake.

Both HOMEPATH and HOMEDRIVE environment on windows use backslash as a folder
separator, but pspp expects a slash.

I make the patch above, and it seems to fix it, but I don't know if this is
the best way.

Another issue is that this peace of code is inside an "#ifdef WINDOWS32", but
on every other ifdef like this the variable being used is WIN32. Is this
right?
