When the code and the comments disagree

[Moshe Zadka]

Or maybe I have misunderstood something. From dospath.py

---------------
# Is a path a mount point?
# XXX This degenerates in: 'is this the root?' on DOS

def ismount(path):
        return isabs(splitdrive(path)[1])
----------------

Why checking isabs, instead of checking =='\\'??????
Beyond me. Anybody?
