def pip.backwardcompat.b

(

s

def pip.backwardcompat.cmp	(		a,
			b
	)

def pip.backwardcompat.console_to_str

def pip.backwardcompat.get_http_message_param	(		http_message,

def pip.backwardcompat.get_path_uid

(

path

)

Return path's uid.

Does not follow symlinks: https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/935#discussion_r5307003

Placed this function in backwardcompat due to differences on AIX and Jython,
that should eventually go away.

:raises OSError: When path is a symlink or can't be read.
