[ESS-bugs] "//" on the Macintosh

Note the "//" in the filepath tmp.

The file is created as
 "/var/folders/vq/xl0j17pn29g52mgx7lqxl8d80000gn/T/RtmpB9dpQB/ABCD79804200fde4pdf"

When I look for it in dired, it can't be found as dired stops at the
"//" and interprets it as
/RtmpB9dpQB/ABCD79804f1ca596.pdf

In order to look for it in dired, I need to
> gsub("//","/",tmp)
[1] "/var/folders/vq/xl0j17pn29g52mgx7lqxl8d80000gn/T/RtmpB9dpQB/ABCD79804f1ca596.pdf"

Can this be fixed by ESS, or by emacs?
