Lib/posixpath.py needs a huge amount of work to behave correctly for either bytes or Unicode paths. I don't know why Lib/ntpath.py is okay here, but the code is different so I suspect it just happens to not need the same conversion.

Switching for each platform is probably the only way, unless you find someone willing to go through and make Unicode paths viable on Python 2.7 (this came up earlier today on one of the lists).
