[wp-hackers] register_theme_directory issue or ???

I'm trying to test the development version of the bbPress plugin 
locally and am unable to because activating the child theme is 
producing some interesting and invalid results:

get_theme_roots() produces this:
Array
(
[bbp-twentyten] => 
E:\htdocs\wpcurrent\wp-content\plugins\bbpress//bbp-themes
[twentyten] => /themes
)

get_stylesheet() produces this:
bbp-twentyten

but get_theme_root( get_stylesheet() ) produces this:
E:\htdocs\wpcurrent/wp-contentE:\htdocs\wpcurrent\wp-content\plugins\bbpress//bbp-themes 


and bloginfo( 'stylesheet_url' ) produces this:
http://127.0.0.1/wpcurrent/wp-content/E:\htdocs\wpcurrent\wp-content\plugins\bbpress//bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/style.css


The plugin adds a location for child theme directory via 
register_theme_directory:
E:\htdocs\wpcurrent\wp-content\plugins\bbpress/bbp-themes/
and appears to be registered correctly(but what do I know?) - and it 
does work on my web host, just not locally!

Local server is EasyPHP:
PHP 5.3.2
apache 2.2.15
MySQL 5.1.45
running on Windows 7

So question 1:
anyone know of another plugin that has a child theme in it that I 
could test?

question 2:
Now is this a windows path issue, me being brain dead, or something 
else entirely?
