Nick Coghlan added the comment:
Since it may not be clear from the rest of the thread, the os.replace() cross-platform atomic renaming building block was added in 3.3 (in #8828, which Victor linked above)
Another stdlib use case now also exists in importlib (see http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.3/Lib/importlib/_bootstrap.py#l121). However, due to bootstrapping issues, importlib would not be able to use a version that was provided in a module like shutil.
