#serial 4
# Check whether getcwd has the bug that it succeeds for a working directory
# longer than PATH_MAX, yet returns a truncated directory name.
# If so, arrange to compile the wrapper function.

# This is necessary for at least GNU libc on linux-2.4.19 and 2.4.20.
# I've heard that this is due to a Linux kernel bug, and that it has
# been fixed between 2.4.21-pre3 and 2.4.21-pre4.  */
