Summary: prefix and exec_prefix as root dir bug

Initial Comment:
When sys.prefix  or sys.exec_prefix are the root
directory, the reported directory is a null string
instead of "/".

This causes site.py to fail as described in bug 713601.

This patch to Modules/getpath.c inserts a SEP character
into the string if it is empty.

It should work fine on any unix, but I don't have any
python experience on the windows side...

What patch?

You seem to have forgotten so check the "yes I really want to upload a 
file" checkbox.
