calling to find_backup_file_name. Reported by Eli Zaretskii.

part of non-directory SOURCE, don't add a slash between them.
1996-08-19Include path-concat.h.Jim Meyering
(do_copy): Check path_concat return value. (path_concat): Remove function.

1996-07-20(path_concat): Rewrite to return new parameter.Jim Meyering
