Jacques, would you be able to take a look at this? I presume it's related to the changes in 4.02 as a result of adding "-open".

It has nothing to do with -open. See my patch above with a potential fix.

I thought there had been some discussion about changing how filenames were chopped during the -open discussion, though I may be misremembering.

Sorry, it wasn't the "-open" discussion, but rather the "-o" discussion that was part of that first discussion.

It does not seem to be related to -o either: it just seems that the code for MODULE was weak from the beginning. Was it introduced by Fabrice?

Note that -o uses chop_extension_with_any, so it works with names that do not have an extension too.

Why use "//unknown//" rather than the same "//toplevel//" that is used for Match_failure and Failed_assert ?

Fixed in 4.02, at revision 15227.
Return "//" ^ Filename.basename file ^ "//" in case of failure,
which gives "//toplevel//" for the toplevel.
