It's right, though.

File.basename("C:/") should return "C:/"
File.dirname("C:/") should return "C:/"
File.basename("//server/share/") must return "//server/share/"
File.dirname("//server/share/") must return "//server/share/"

This would be true for any filesystem environment that allows multiple roots.
