What? No. Absolutely not -- that would be a major bug. Did you actually try
it?
>>> '/home//h1122/bin///ghi/'.split('/')
['', 'home', '', 'h1122', 'bin', '', '', 'ghi', '']
Exactly as expected, and correct.
Now obviously if you intend treating this as a list of path components, you
have to filter out the empty strings, but otherwise works fine.
