   Input/output parameter(s) :
   Output parameter(s) :
     *pcanonizedpathname : cleaned filename (ex : "/tmp/file")
   Normal return values :

     //server/share/
     //s/sh/file   //s/sh/dir   //s/sh/dir/file   //s/sh/dir/dir
    Note : a Window share is very similar to an absolute path

           you have to ensure an absolute path does not start
           with '//'.

     jail : same as concat except pathname2 is considered as an

            cannot escape from dirname1.

            file located in dirname1 directory)
               [dirname1]-[pathname2]
                        X----------->
            If pathname2 is relative, result is pathname2.
            If pathname2 is absolute, dirname1 must be absolute.
     relb : relative path to go to pathname2 from a file
            in dirname1 directory (pathname1 and pathname2
            are located in the same directory)
