------- Comment #1 from wayned at samba.org  2009-09-05 10:46 CST -------
There are all sorts of options and args that can depend on the current
directory.  If we allow the determination of what the current directory is to
fail, we'd need to set a flag that the failure happened and then add code to
every case that made sure that if curr_dir was used to construct a path that it
should error out at that point.  I don't think this is worth the complexity.

For scripts, you can add a "cd /" to make sure that your current directory is
always valid.
