[issue25409] fnmatch.fnmatch normalizes slashes/backslashes on Windows

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

I think the existing behavior is the desirable behavior, but in any case as you say it is too late to change it.  The docs should indeed be clarified by changing the wording to indicate that fnmatch calls normcase but fnmatchcase does not, with a link to normcase (which in turn documents the windows behavior).
