[issue13143] os.path.islink documentation is ambiguous

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti at gmail.com> added the comment:

> Symlink awareness under Windows was added to Python in Python 3.2

If they are not available on Windows with 2.7, the doc should get an "availability: unix" or something similar (depending on where they are actually supported), or mention explicitly symlink for Windows are not supported.

> I will extend the Python 3.1 and earlier docs to clarify this detail.

3.1 only gets security fixes, so only 2.7/3.2/default should be updated.
