These two messages have convinced me that the correct approach is to kick the
can down the road. I will file a new issue and patch to fix os.defpath (by
initializing os.defpath by calling confstr("CS_PATH")). Then I will file a new
issue and patch that will define a reasonable os.confstr() for platforms where
HAVE_CONFSTR is not defined.
