Tim Peters cf5e6a4a5d SF bug [#469732] os.path.walk docstring inconsistent.
We have 5 implementations of walk(), and 5 different docstrings.  Combined
'em.  Let's see how long it takes before they're all different again!

Guido van Rossum 83eeef4b06 SF patch #461781 by Chris Lawrence: os.path.realpath - Resolve symlinks:
Once upon a time, I put together a little function
   that tries to find the canonical filename for a given
   pathname on POSIX. I've finally gotten around to
   turning it into a proper patch with documentation.
   On non-POSIX, I made it an alias for 'abspath', as
   that's the behavior on POSIX when no symlinks are
   encountered in the path.

   Example:
   >>> os.path.realpath('/usr/bin/X11/X')
   '/usr/X11R6/bin/X'

Guido van Rossum a490d5856d In walk(), don't die when os.lstat() raises os.error, e.g. because a
file was deleted by a previous call to the visitor function.

This used to be the behavior in 1.5.2 and before, but a patch to avoid
making two stat() calls accidentally broke this in 2.0.

Moshe, this would be a good one for 2.0.1 too!

Marc-André Lemburg bf222c9f12 Fixed posixpath.normpath() to respect two leading slashes, but
turn three or more into a single slash. (This is in sync with POSIX
susv2 according to Fredrik.)

Fred Drake 8152d32375 Update the code to better reflect recommended style:
Use != instead of <> since <> is documented as "obsolescent".
Use "is" and "is not" when comparing with None or type objects.

Guido van Rossum a9b2b4be26 Remove some redundant logic from walk() -- there's no need to check
for "." and "..", since listdir() no longer returns those.

Guido van Rossum 54f22ed30b More trivial comment -> docstring transformations by Ka-Ping Yee,
who writes:

Here is batch 2, as a big collection of CVS context diffs.
Along with moving comments into docstrings, i've added a
couple of missing docstrings and attempted to make sure more
module docstrings begin with a one-line summary.

I did not add docstrings to the methods in profile.py for
fear of upsetting any careful optimizations there, though
i did move class documentation into class docstrings.

The convention i'm using is to leave credits/version/copyright
type of stuff in # comments, and move the rest of the descriptive
stuff about module usage into module docstrings.  Hope this is
okay.
