New submission from Jesse Towner:
os.path.relpath fails with an exception on both Windows and Unix systems
(ntpath and posixpath modules) when the given path and the start path
are equal. Better behavior here might be to return an empty string or
perhaps os.path.curdir.
>>> os.path.relpath("test", "test")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#40>", line 1, in <module>
os.path.relpath("test", "test")
File "C:\Program Files\Python3K\Lib\ntpath.py", line 495, in relpath
return join(*rel_list)
TypeError: join() takes at least 1 positional argument (0 given)
