tracker issue : CF-3477538

Problem Description:

CFAJAXPROXY and CFCOMPONENT EXTENDS="" no longer resolve relative paths to CFCs when running in Coldfusion 10 on Windows from an IIS Website that uses virtual directories.

We have application code that worked fine on Windows Server 2003 R2 using IIS Virtual Directories up until we upgraded to Coldfusion 10 Enterprise Standalone. Now, instead of correctly resolving the path to the CFC, CF throws the following exception:

The specified CFC calc could not be found. The path to the CFC must be specified as a full path, or as a relative path from the current template, without the use of mappings

coldfusion.tagext.html.ajax.AjaxProxyTag$InvalidCFCException: The specified CFC calc could not be found.
	at coldfusion.tagext.html.ajax.AjaxProxyTag.getCFCInvocationPath(AjaxProxyTag.java:500)
	at coldfusion.tagext.html.ajax.AjaxProxyTag.generateAjaxProxy(AjaxProxyTag.java:238)
	at coldfusion.tagext.html.ajax.AjaxProxyTag.doStartTag(AjaxProxyTag.java:133)
	at coldfusion.runtime.CfJspPage._emptyTcfTag(CfJspPage.java:2799)
	at cfindex2ecfm543476416.runPage(I:\inetpub\temp\test\index.cfm:1)

We have confirmed that relative CFC paths work ok on Linux and Apache and on Windows and IIS without using virtual directories. We have not tested newer versions of Windows, neither have we tested Coldfusion running in J2EE configuration nor have we tested it on CF 9. We can confirmed that the only thing that changed on our servers was the upgrade to Coldfusion, the code hasn't changed.

Steps to Reproduce:

Create a website on Windows Server 2003 and configure it to handle CF against a standalone instance of CF 10 Enterprise on the same computer. 
Create a virtual directory on that website that connects a URL to a filesystem not in that webroot, but still on that same operating system.
Unzip the attached application and run it

Actual Result:

coldfusion.tagext.html.ajax.AjaxProxyTag$InvalidCFCException is thrown

Expected Result:

The number '3'

Any Workarounds:

CFAJAXPROXY can probably be worked around by setting a variable for each request that works out the absolute path to the CFC in that environment. This approach cannot work for CFCOMPONENT inheritance though, we cannot think of a workaround for that because that path resolution occurs earlier in the compilation process.
