-1 on fssyspath - the "system" representation is bytes on POSIX, but not on Windows. Let's be explicit and go with fsbytespath().
Depends on the semantics; if we're expecting it to return str-or-bytes, os.fssyspath() seems fine. If only returning bytes (not sure that ever makes sense on Windows, since I don't use Windows), then I'd be happy with os.fsbytespath().
