os.path.normpath() on WIN32 systems returns a null 
string for . followed by a directory separator:

>>> os.path.normpath('./')
''
>>> os.path.normpath('.\\')
''
>>> os.path.normpath('.')
'.'
>>>

Contrast with what happens on Linux:

>>> os.path.normpath('./')
'.'
>>> os.path.normpath('.')
'.'
>>>

Sorry, I don't have a later version than 2.1.1 
available to check whether this is fixed in a later 
version, but I did do a search for other reports of 
this bug and found none.
