[issue3426] os.path.abspath with unicode argument should call os.getcwdu

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

abspath is basically dead code in macpath, the module is used to manipulate classic MacOS9-style paths and is no longer used as os.path on any supported platform (it used to be os.path on MacOS9).

BTW. the module itself is not dead, OSX still uses OS9-style paths in a number of older APIs.
