Subject: [PATCH] On Windows playing items like dvd:// or screen:// causes
 strange shortcuts in the user recently used folder.

See http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/nb-NO/w7itprogeneral/thread/02a71215-e308-408c-94a6-81f5a8e564a6
for some information. The solution calls SHAddToRecentDocs only if make_path
returns a valid path.
