Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

@item
This function is missing on some platforms:
IRIX 6.5, mingw, MSVC 14.
@item
glibc and Android have two different functions @code{basename}: the POSIX
version and the GNU version.
@item
@code{basename} assumes file names in POSIX syntax; it does not work with file
names in Windows syntax.
@end itemize
The Gnulib module @code{basename-lgpl} provides similar API, with a function
@code{last_component}, that also works with Windows file names.
