Yes, I have attached an updated patch.

We are indeed aligned. The only additional thing I discovered was
the reason `org-refile--get-location' works despite having double
slashes. That was new for me.

Just experimenting with Woof!

Subject: [PATCH] org-refile: Fix double slashes in the refile targets

* org-refile.el (org-refile-get-location): When we generate the `tbl'
variable, we add extra slash depending on the value of
`org-refile-use-outline-path'.  This patch updates some locations which
add another extra slash assuming the target did not have it.

`org-refile--get-location' does lookup for entries with and without
slash, so it was not causing any issues before.  It works as it is now
as well.

Thanks to Gustavo Barros for a very detailed bug report.
