The double-slash fixup on the $workdir variable was being
performed just-in-time to avoid double-slashes in symlink
targets, but the rest of the code was silently using paths with
embedded "//" in them.

A recent user-reported error message contained double-slashes.
Eliminate the issue by sanitizing inputs as soon as they arrive.
