The change in the SLASH code is only in subversion repository and it is
probably likely person is using tar ball release code and thus wouldn't
have code with SLASH change in it anyway. My recollection also is that 
the
SLASH change is in code not connected with this. Anyway, I'll have a
bit of time today to look at this properly.
