I never got the impression that either Emacs or XEmacs actually
intended anyone to use this.  All the filename twiddling stuff
seemed to be put into expand-file-name.  Once I came to that
conclusion I didn't bother using convert-standard-filename
anywhere other than the tempfile creation code.  And I doubt that
it is actually doing anything useful there.
