New submission from Ezio Melotti <ezio.melo...@gmail.com>:

On Windows, with Python2/Python3, os.listdir('')/os.listdir(b'') list
the content of the current working directory and
os.listdir(u'')/os.listdir('') the content of C:\.

On Linux the error "OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''" is
raised.

I also noticed that os.listdir('C:') (without the \) lists the content
of the cwd too.
