From: Sunil Muthuswamy <sunilmut@microsoft.com>
With upstream commit#ea1edcd7da1a "vl: relocate paths to data
directories", the data dir logic was unified between POSIX &
Win32. That patch moved to using 'get_relocated_path()', to
find the data dir. There is a latent bug in get_relocated_path
which can cause it to spin indefinitely, when the bind dir is
the same as the passed in dir (in this case, it was the data
dir).
