Current implementation use `substitute-in-file-name' which substitute environment variables; that
function deal with '//' differently as expected on unix systems:
In unix systems there is no difference between:
I) /foo//bar/baz
II) /foo/bar/baz
but `substitute-in-file-name' will translate I) into:
/bar/baz
I found more sensible if 'parse-colon-path' would made no difference
between I) and II).

In *scratch* buffer after started session with:
emacs -Q
(let ((foo "/home/user/soft/bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(parse-colon-path "$FOO"))
("/home/user/soft/bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin/")
(let ((foo "/home/user/soft/bin/:/usr/bin/:usr/local/bin/"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(parse-colon-path "$FOO"))
("/")
(let ((foo "/home/user/soft//bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(parse-colon-path "$FOO"))
("/bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin/")
(let ((foo "/home/user/soft//bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin/"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(parse-colon-path "$FOO"))
("/")
(let ((foo "/home/user/soft/bin/:/usr/bin/"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(parse-colon-path (getenv "FOO")))
("/home/user/soft/bin/" "/usr/bin/")
(let* ((foo "/home/user")
(bar "$FOO/soft/bin/:/usr/bin/"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(setenv "BAR" bar)
(parse-colon-path (getenv "BAR")))
("/home/user/soft/bin/" "/usr/bin/")
(let* ((foo "/home/user/")
(bar "$FOO/soft/bin/:/usr/bin/"))
(setenv "FOO" foo)
(setenv "BAR" bar)
(parse-colon-path (getenv "BAR")))
("/soft/bin/" "/usr/bin/")
