This is explained in the docs:

    Join one or more path components intelligently.... If a 
    component is an absolute path, all previous components are 
    thrown away and joining continues from the absolute path 
    component. On Windows, the drive letter is not reset when 
    an absolute path component (e.g., r'\foo') is encountered.
