Comment (by anonymous):
I thought of another solution that's probably a lot more portable. The
python method os.ismount() will return true if a particular directory is a
mount point. When we get a path, to determine if it's remotely mounted,
we'd just have to repeatedly call os.split() on the pathname and
os.ismount() on the remaining head of the path to see if any of the
directories above are actually mount points. This would not be
excessively slow (probably quicker than forking mount), and should be
portable.
I haven't actually written a patch that does this, so if the person
responsible could indicate their progress on this bug, I can write one up.
