Can't happen when file-name-as-directory is used, right?
The method of using concat *and* file-name-as-directory is a reliable
method. However, it is considerably more cumbersome than just using
concat--or just using expand-file-name.
So maybe it will work better to define a convenient function
as the new recommendation.
