Description

If you install in a different directory and it ends with the path separator,
your MAVEN_HOME variable might contain a path separator to many.

For example (on windows):
Install to "C:\develop\build\maven 1.0-rc4\"
SET PATH contains:
C:\develop\build\maven 1.0-rc4
bin

I installed rc4 to a custom directory and my MAVEN_HOME was wrongly set with a double \ (slash) instead of one. Found it after a short while by checking the MAVEN_HOME, but I don't think that new Maven users know to look for it there.

Its not that important, but on first sight it doesn't seem nothing more then checking if the custom directory endsWith "\" and remove it if so.
