I've always known it as the former; a perusal of the Python repository
would probably indicate when it became exposed in the os module
itself. Support for extension separators (extsep and splitext) has
always been somewhat lacklustre in the os(.path) module, perhaps due
to "complicated" filename syntax from operating systems like VMS, but
it'd be good to improve this support in future, I think.
