After the changes from https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/8544, ntpath.abspath no longer calls normpath on the output of nt._getfullpathname. This unfortunately causes "python setup.py develop" on a project to become upset in some instances because two paths (which should be equal) differ by a trailing slash. Presumably this could be corrected by updating https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/0185f34ddcf07b78feb6ac666fbfd4615d26b028/Lib/ntpath.py#L526 to use normpath when it calls _getfullpathname.
