Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment:

ntpath and macpath appear to have the same potential issue.
They've basically had this defpath value forever.

keep following it and you find a commit from 1994 
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/2979b01ff88ac4c5b316d9bf98edbaaaffac8e24

Changing them only alters behavior of users of os.defpath or in the (odd?) 
situation when the PATH environment variable is unset, anything using of 
shutil.which() or distutils.spawn.find_executabnle(), the only stdlib users of 
os.defpath.
