The patch as such looks good to me.  The test case should go into the 
top-level io directory, where getcwd resides.  I don't think it is 
Linux-specific.  Can you move it and commit it?

I still think we should have a realpath test as well, but that should 
delaying committing this fix.

Thanks,
Florian
