If current working directory contains non-ascii characters, calling
os.path.abspath(u".") will result in an error. I expect it to call the
underlying os.getcwdu() in this case.
>>> import os
>>> os.path.abspath(u".")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 29:

It works if I do it manually, using os.getcwdu():
>>> os.path.join(os.getcwdu(), u".")
