That was unclear, at least to me:

--- a/src/java.base/windows/classes/java/io/WinNTFileSystem.java
+++ b/src/java.base/windows/classes/java/io/WinNTFileSystem.java
@@ -48,11 +48,11 @@
     public WinNTFileSystem() {
         Properties props = GetPropertyAction.privilegedGetProperties();
         slash = props.getProperty("file.separator").charAt(0);
         semicolon = props.getProperty("path.separator").charAt(0);
         altSlash = (this.slash == '\\') ? '/' : '\\';
-        userDir = props.getProperty("user.dir");
+        userDir = normalize(props.getProperty("user.dir"));
     }

Thanks,
