Subject:	latest cygwin does not track pwd?
X-Mailer:	VM 6.76 under Emacs 20.7.1

I updated to all latest files as of 10:30AM on October 31, 2000 from
ftp.freesoftware.com as well as ftp.yggdrasil.com.

I give two examples of how bash and/or cygwin1.dll gets confused about
pwd.  First "ls -l ./foo" reports that ./foo does not exist.  However,
"cat ./foo" prints out its old content!

  bash-2.04$ cd d:/projects/apwin/tools/
  bash-2.04$ ls -l ./foo
  ls: ./foo: No such file or directory
  bash-2.04$ cat ./foo
  #!/usr/local/bin/perl
  use Cwd;
  my $dir = cwd;
  print "cwd = $dir\n";
  bash-2.04$ 

Second, perl's standard Cwd::cwd function returns 'undef':

  bash-2.04$ cd d:/tmp
  bash-2.04$ ls -l ./foo
  -rwxr-xr-x   1 ryk      Domain U       68 Oct 31 10:27 ./foo
  bash-2.04$ cat ./foo
  #!/usr/local/bin/perl
  use Cwd;
  my $dir = cwd;
  print "cwd = $dir\n";
  bash-2.04$ ./foo
  cwd = 
  bash-2.04$ 

Many of my perl scripts are now broken due to this problem.

Here is my cygcheck output:
