Best thing to do is to ask the user to post the complete traceback.
You might need to use "import os.path" but normally I would expect
that not to be an issue.

the user suggests that even though claims are made that you can use a
filesystem, but stuff like pwd is missing. Apparently the user module has no
meaning, but there is a users module? I guess I'll need to keep patching
reportlab when GAE users find these glitches.
