						- # fs.realpath
 - 
 - A backwards-compatible fs.realpath for Node v6 and above
 - 
 - In Node v6, the JavaScript implementation of fs.realpath was replaced
 - with a faster (but less resilient) native implementation.  That raises
 - new and platform-specific errors and cannot handle long or excessively
 - symlink-looping paths.
 - 
 - This module handles those cases by detecting the new errors and
 - falling back to the JavaScript implementation.  On versions of Node
 - prior to v6, it has no effect.
 - 
 - ## USAGE
 - 
 - ```js
 - var rp = require('fs.realpath')
 - 
 - // async version
 - rp.realpath(someLongAndLoopingPath, function (er, real) {
 -   // the ELOOP was handled, but it was a bit slower
 - })
 - 
 - // sync version
 - var real = rp.realpathSync(someLongAndLoopingPath)
 - 
 - // monkeypatch at your own risk!
 - // This replaces the fs.realpath/fs.realpathSync builtins
 - rp.monkeypatch()
 - 
 - // un-do the monkeypatching
 - rp.unmonkeypatch()
 - ```
