> Is there any problem with join always calling normpath on it's result? Yes. If /usr/local/bin was a symlink to /net/x86, then /usr/local/bin/../lib might not be /usr/local/lib, but /net/lib. So calling normpath in the presence of symlinks might be incorrect.

Yes. If /usr/local/bin was a symlink to /net/x86, then
/usr/local/bin/../lib might not be /usr/local/lib, but /net/lib. So
calling normpath in the presence of symlinks might be incorrect.
