[issue9790] ntpath contains imports inside functions

[Brian Curtin]

Brian Curtin <curtin at acm.org> added the comment:

Nick noticed another issue with this, and it actually won't work on pre-Vista versions since we load GetFinalPathNameByHandle at runtime, which is why we had that NotImplementedError.

Attaching a patch which should handle this. We only try the import on Windows 6.0 or above now, and otherwise (XP, other OS'es) use the fallback method.
