Summary: os.py uses #' - undocumented magic?

Initial Comment:
os.py wraps the first section of code (determining which 
operating system and path to use) in lines containing just 

#'

(A comment start followed by a single-quote start.)

This looks like unexplained magic.  It should either be 
deleted, or commented to indicate why it is there.
