[New-bugs-announce] [issue25930] os.unlink != os.remove in python3.5

[Anthony Sottile]

New submission from Anthony Sottile:

I've confirmed this bug is present on both windows and linux, the outputs below are from linux however.

Compare:

```
$ python3.4 --version
Python 3.4.3
$ python3.4 -c 'import os; print(os.unlink == os.remove)'
True
```

```
$ python3.5 --version
Python 3.5.0
$ python3.5 -c 'import os; print(os.unlink == os.remove)'
False
```

The docs say: https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.remove

"This function is identical to unlink()."

To me identity means `is` but I at least expect the `==` behaviour of previous versions.
