Thanks Eric - I've now applied that patch.  As you mentioned in a 
followup to the bug:

(for reference; the patch introduces a PendingDeprecationWarning for 
ntpath.uncpath)

The bug tracker doesn't have these future versions available yet - is 
there some other way these things should be tracked?  I fear simply 
opening a new bug without a reasonable 'trigger' will linger way beyond 
the next few versions...

Thanks,

Mark
