	swapon(1M) does not activate the local filesystem
	swap if the "device special file" field of swapfs
	entry in /etc/fstab does not start with '/'.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_27010:
	( SR:8606187406 CR:JAGad56613 ) Duplicate
	( SR:8606336994 CR:JAGae98031 )
	swapon(1M) always expects "device special file"
	field for the local filesystem swap entries
	in /etc/fstab to start with '/'.
	The problem can be reproduced as follows:

	1. Update the /etc/fstab file with the following
	   entry:
	   default /rick_dumps swapfs pri=1 0 0

	2. Execute the command
	   # swapon -a

	3. swapon(1m) issues the error "swapon: unable
	   to find the mount point for /rick_dumps."

	Resolution:
	The code is corrected to activate the swapfs
	entries in /etc/fstab as filesystem swap even
	when it does not start with '/'.

Enhancement:
	No
