where my machine name is 'machina' and 'd$' is a file share. to use
your example,

> perl -e "print qq{hello\n} if -f q{\\a\b\c}" doesn't.
perl -MFile::Spec::Functions=catfile -e "print qq{hello\n} if -f
catfile qw{//a b c}"

of course, if the dir or file names have embedded spaces, you'll have
to use something other than qw{}.
