52 * Copied verbatim from PDP-11. Still as messy as ever.
53 * Some people have asked for a modification (I think that's a better
54 * idea than a new routine) which will change the directory name
55 * into an absolute pathname if it isn't one already. The change
56 * involves doing a getwd() and prepending that if appropriate, with
57 * a "/" in between that and the directory part of the path.
58 * If you want to be cute, you can also resolve ".."s at that time.
