os.path.samefile not available on Windows (Python 2.7) #711

The regular Python 2.7 distribution doesn't have os.path.samefile on Windows. It is used here:

https://github.com/libdynd/dynd-python/blob/master/setup.py#L8

Anaconda has the method.

Hmm. Good find. It appears that it's documented as Unix-only in Python 2 even though it is sometimes there on Windows installations. It's not immediately apparent to me why it would be missing in the official installers but present in the Anaconda python. I'll see if I can get a fix up.
