shutil seems like the place for it to me. The subtlety of getting the
error suppression correct makes it worth implementing this once and
for all I think.
Really - so we have two almost identical functions with slightly
different behaviour in different standard library modules? Aren't the
Python APIs for working with files and paths confused enough already.
That seems crazy to me and a switch on os.makedirs much more sensible.
