39044 does not nullify Clint's work: the new manual text builds
on Clint's docstring and makes _canonical_paths more discoverable.

I concede that 39044 would have broken a workflow whereby one reads
a function's docstring by opening the file defining the function,
and I addressed the issue by committing an alternate patch that breaks
no workflow.

Let's move on.  The reason I got into _canonical_paths at all is that
I'm trying to improve _umount, see separate thread.

Cheers,

Daniel
