Summary: os.path.join.__doc__ should mention absolute paths
Initial Comment:
Currently, automatically generated docs from os.path.join do not mention that
all paths prior to the last absolute path are discarded.
The __doc__ says:
"Join two or more pathname components, inserting '/' as needed"
>From this documentation, it is not obvious that os.path.join("abc", "/cde",
>"fgh") results in "/cde/fgh".

"""Join two or more pathname components, inserting '/' as needed. If any
component is an absolute path, all previous path components will be
discarded."""
Does that work for you? Could you come up with language that you'd prefer
to see?
