246 The getcwd function performs nearly the same task, but is typically
247 unable to handle names longer than PATH_MAX. This function has
248 no such limitation. However, this function *can* fail due to
249 permission problems or a lack of memory, while GNU/Linux's getcwd
250 function works regardless of restricted permissions on parent
251 directories. Upon failure, give a diagnostic and exit nonzero.
253 Note: although this function is similar to getcwd, it has a fundamental
254 difference in that it gives a diagnostic and exits upon failure.
255 I would have liked a function that did not exit, and that could be
256 used as a getcwd replacement. Unfortunately, considering all of
257 the information the caller would require in order to produce good
258 diagnostics, it doesn't seem worth the added complexity.
259 In any case, any getcwd replacement must *not* exceed the PATH_MAX
260 limitation. Otherwise, functions like 'chdir' would fail with
263 FIXME-maybe: if find_dir_entry fails due to permissions, try getcwd,
264 in case the unreadable directory is close enough to the root that
265 getcwd works from there. */
