ntpath.splitunc() returns illegal results when path contains redundant slashes.

>>> import ntpath
>>> ntpath.splitunc("\\\\\\conky\\mountpoint\\foo\\bar")
('\\\\\\conky', '\\mountpoint\\foo\\bar')
>>> ntpath.splitunc("///conky/mountpoint/foo/bar")
('///conky', '/mountpoint/foo/bar')
>>> ntpath.splitunc("\\\\conky\\\\mountpoint\\foo\\bar")
('\\\\conky\\', '\\mountpoint\\foo\\bar')

It also affected by a bug from issue19911.

It also emits warnings in wrong place (from stdlib, not from places where it is used).

It has no tests.

Proposed patch fixes these issues.

Hi Serhiy, there are commented-out lines in changeset http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/e4beb183a674. Are they intentionally there?

+    #if p[1:2] == ':':
+        #return '', p # Drive letter present
+    #firstTwo = p[0:2]
+    #if firstTwo == '//' or firstTwo == '\\\\':
+        ## is a UNC path:
+        ## vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv equivalent to drive letter
+        ## \\machine\mountpoint\directories...
+        ##           directory ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+        #normp = normcase(p)
+        #index = normp.find('\\', 2)
+        #if index == -1:
+            ###raise RuntimeError, 'illegal UNC path: "' + p + '"'
+            #return ("", p)
+        #index = normp.find('\\', index + 1)
+        #if index == -1:
+            #index = len(p)
+        #return p[:index], p[index:]
+    #return '', p
