Gary - thank you! It would be really great to get COMMONS-IO 2.7 release production version.

> {{FilenameUtils.normalize}} will accept broken file names as UNC path even if their hostname part doesn't match the syntax of a proper hostname. Using certain hostnames like "." this may lead to strange side effects.
> Most likely the best fix will be to make {{getPrefixLength}} verify the hostname part of a suspected UNC path and return a value of {{NOT_FOUND}} if it is not a valid hostname - much like it does for triple slashes.
