Summary: add optional CWD argument to os.path.abspath()

Initial Comment:
I would like to add an optional second argument to
os.path.abspath() to allow specifying the directory
with respect to which the path should be made
absolute.  This would be much like the optional second
argument of the expand-file-name function in emacs:

(expand-file-name NAME &optional DEFAULT-DIRECTORY)

The patch is against python 2.2.2.  I am running RH 6.3
linux 
but that should not matter.

thanks

i can submit a patch for those other versions of abspath. 
but i'd rather know whether there is support for this change
before doing that.

And don't forget riscospath.py found in the plat-risc directory in Lib in the source distribution.  =)
