Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

@item
This function is missing on some platforms:
IRIX 6.5, Solaris 2.5.1, mingw, MSVC 14, BeOS.
@item
glibc has two different functions @code{basename}: the POSIX version and
the GNU version.
@item
@code{basename} assumes file names in POSIX syntax; it does not work with file
names in Windows syntax.
@end itemize
The Gnulib module @code{dirname} provides similar API, with function
@code{base_name}, that also works with Windows file names.
