Unable to reproduce:

rosuav at dewey:~$ python3
Python 3.4.2 (default, Oct  8 2014, 10:45:20)
[GCC 4.9.1] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from pathlib import Path
>>> p = Path("/etc")
>>> q = p / "init.d"
>>> q
PosixPath('/etc/init.d')
>>> pathlib.__file__
'/usr/lib/python3.4/pathlib.py'

Is it possible you have another pathlib installed? It's available on
PyPI, maybe you got it with pip - check 'pip freeze|grep pathlib' on
the off-chance. Is your pathlib.__file__ the same as mine?
