What did you expect to see?
The demo CL (https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/604875/3) contains several expectations, but I'll pick one. I'm particularly surprised that the relative path from basepath \\?\C:\foo to targpath \\?\C:\foo\bar is an error instead of bar.
I'm a little out of my depth, but this Microsoft documentation (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#win32-file-namespaces) seems to indicate that \\?\ is just a way of turning off string parsing in Windows APIs.
I think it should be possible to work around this limitation, for instance by prefixing \\?\ onto the parameters when they are already absolute paths.
