[PYTHONMAC-SIG] MSDOS floppies

I just noticed that Python doesn't like MSDOS floppies very much:
- os.chdir('DOSDISK:') does not work (making an alias to the floppy
  and chdir()ing there does work!)
- os.listdir(':') when your working directory is a dos floppy does not
  work.

Personally, I couldn't care less:-), but if anyone feels the urge to
dive into the problem I will graciously accept donations of working
code...
