I think Brian's second solution ("the result is simply path2 when path1 is 
empty or path2 is an absolute path?") is a strong one. If that were tacked on 
towards the end it would add some clarity to the docs for people who will end 
up using this behavior or want a more in-depth explanation. At the same time, I 
think putting it towards the end (as more of a side note, like the bit about 
behavior on Windows with drive names) lets less sophisticated users (like me) 
ignore that piece of documentation.
