Ah, I see, then your approach makes sense.
There's another part of your patch that I don't understand:
+except ImportError: # not running on Windows - mock up something sensible
+ from posixpath import samefile # XXX
In what situations will this happen, and are we guaranteed in those
cases that samefile will be found in posixpath?
