Definitely the current documentation of these APIs, yes.
The parameter should appear in the signature also, with then
the remark that it works Windows only.
There should also be a versionchanged markup.
I think there are also effects on stat/lstat, IIRC; if so,
they should be documented as well. If there are now differences,
ISTM that you can't find out whether a link is a directory symlink;
if so, *that* should be documented.
