[issue9850] obsolete macpath module dangerously broken and should be removed

[Oleg Oshmyan]

Oleg Oshmyan <chortos at inbox.lv> added the comment:

I fully agree with Ronald’s proposal. And for a start, here is a trivial patch that fixes macpath.join('', ...) [at the moment it just returns its last argument]. By the way, this fix is probably eligible for inclusion in Python 2.7 too.

I also have ‘implement macpath.relpath’ in my to-do list, although in practice this means nothing.
