[3.6] bpo-29723: Consistently configure sys.path[0] by ncoghlan · Pull Request #636 · python/cpython
Directory and zipfile execution previously added the parent directory of the directory or zipfile as sys.path[0] and then subsequently overwrote it with the directory or zipfile itself. This caused problems in isolated mode, as it overwrote the "stdlib as a zip archive" entry in sys.path, as the parent directory was never added. The attempted fix to that issue in bpo-29319 created the opposite problem in *non*-isolated mode, by potentially leaving the parent directory on sys.path instead of overwriting it. This change fixes the root cause of the problem by removing the whole "add-and-overwrite" dance for sys.path[0], and instead simply never adds the parent directory to sys.path in the first place. (cherry picked from commit d2977a3)
