Oren Milman added the comment:

just checked, and indeed on my Windows 10 the original code I posted here
crashes the interpreter.

The patch in the PR undermines duck-typing, and that's why I added a comment
there, stating I wasn't sure about the patch.
an alternate solution would be to simply check whether the return value of
pathname.replace('/', '\') is a str.

do you think I would update the PR to do that?
