Live and learn. Apparently, the os module in Python 2.3 has a walk() function that provides a somewhat similar functionality as the path's walkdir(); the iteration from my previous example could be replaced with something like this:

for directory, subdirectory_list, filelist in os.walk(root):
    directory_list.append((len(filelist), directory))

Thanks to Myles Strous for pointing this out.
