Is there a python equivalent of the perl readlink() function

Reading the documentation on the various os.path functions, the
only thing I see returns the fully resolved path rather than the
relative one (/usr/local/bin/ls in the case above).

The function is in the os module ( http://docs.python.org/lib/os-file-dir.html).
