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'

SF bug #456621 : normpath on Win32 not collapsing c:\\..
...
I actually rewrote normpath quite a bit: it had no test cases, and as
soon as I starting writing some I found several cases that didn't make
sense.

One more crack at join(): stop trying to pretend this isn't a mass of

special cases. test_pkg works again on Windows.

Change ntpath.join() so that join("d:/", "/whatever") returns
...
d:/whatever instead of /whatever. While I'm afraid changing isabs()
to be *consistent* with this would break lots of code, it makes
best sense for join() to do it this way. Thanks to Alex Martelli for
pushing back on this one!

SF bug #44271 : os.path.expanduser problem w/o HOME set.
...
This is a Windows-specific glitch that's really due to that, e.g.,
ntpath.join("c:", "/abc") returned "/abc" instead of "c:/abc". Made
join smarter.
Bugfix candidate.

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.

Avoid import of string module; it is only needed for expandvars().

Never assume that os.sep is for the module-specific platform; use the
right separator character directly.
Fix some minor style consistency nits.

In abspath(), always use normpath(), even when win32api is available

(and even when it fails). This avoids the problem where a trailing
separator is not removed when win32api.GetFullPathName() is used.

Withdraw the UNC support from splitdrive(). Instead, a new function
...
splitunc() parses UNC paths. The contributor of the UNC parsing in
splitdrive() doesn't like it, but I haven't heard a good reason to
keep it, and it causes some problems. (I think there's a
philosophical problem -- to me, the split*() functions are purely
syntactical, and the fact that \\foo is not a valid path doesn't mean
that it shouldn't be considered an absolute path.)
Also (quite separately, but strangely related to the philosophical
issue above) fix abspath() so that if win32api exists, it doesn't fail
when the path doesn't actually exist -- if GetFullPathName() fails,
fall back on the old strategy (join with getcwd() if neccessary, and
then use normpath()).

(1) Change normpath() to *not* also call normcase().

locales that have a different number of lowercase and uppercase
letters.
