It turns out that some users do provide unclean paths like "foo/bar/" and as a result the new behaviour in commit bc750ad ("join: return an error if root is unclean path") was far too aggressive and lead to regressions. The more gentle solution is to only error out if the path contains a ".." component (which is the only component type we are really worried about here because it's the only one that can turn a safe root-joined-path into an unsafe one due to how symlinks are resolved on Linux).
