Thanks for the info on the change!
Also, I'm not actually writing my own isdir method. Since the issue is
arising from using the new _isdir method from the nt module, I just switch
back to using the old genericpath.isdir method instead, which is what would
get used anyway if the _isdir import failed..
So I only added this to userSetup.py:
if sys.version_info >= (2, 7, 3):
os.path.isdir = genericpath.isdir
