40/* Record the location of the current working directory in CWD so that
41 the program may change to other directories and later use restore_cwd
42 to return to the recorded location. This function may allocate
43 space using malloc (via getcwd) or leave a file descriptor open;
44 use free_cwd to perform the necessary free or close. Upon failure,
45 no memory is allocated, any locally opened file descriptors are
46 closed; return non-zero -- in that case, free_cwd need not be
47 called, but doing so is ok. Otherwise, return zero.
48
49 The _raison d'etre_ for this interface is that the working directory
50 is sometimes inaccessible, and getcwd is not robust or as efficient.
51 So, we prefer to use the open/fchdir approach, but fall back on
52 getcwd if necessary. This module works for most cases with just
53 the getcwd-lgpl module, but to be truly robust, use the getcwd module.
54
55 Some systems lack fchdir altogether: e.g., OS/2, pre-2001 Cygwin,
56 SCO Xenix. Also, SunOS 4 and Irix 5.3 provide the function, yet it
57 doesn't work for partitions on which auditing is enabled. If
58 you're still using an obsolete system with these problems, please
59 send email to the maintainer of this code. */
