Charles-François Natali <neolo...@free.fr> added the comment: Another problem with the POSIX realpath(3): it can fail with ENOENT if the target path doesn't exist, whereas the current Python implementation "succeeds" even if a component in the path doesn't exist. Note the quotes around "succeeds", because I'm not sure whether this behavior is a good thing: the result is just plain wrong. I wonder whether we should break backwards compatibility on this particular point...
