Previously, a regular expression of /./ was used to replace /./ with
/. The '.'' in the expression matches any single character so the
replacement was more broadly applicable than it should have been. For
example, /a/ would be replaced with /.
This commit uses Pattern.LITERAL to compile the regular expression
from the CURRENT_DIR (/./) contant. This allows the constant to be
used to check for occurances of /./ in the string before attempting
replacement, while also ensuring that the '.' is treated literally.
