I believe shutil.py is an obscure name for this
particular module.  I only discovered it (years ago) 
by accident when looking for an example of os.path.walk.

It's probably too late, but it would be great if we
could change the name to filecopy.py, retaining
shutil.py (which could import filecopy's code).
