But even if it is true, I previously said that GetCurrentDirectory()
holds the straightforward values set by SetCurrentDirectory(), so we don't
have to stick to "PWD" environemt variable that may be different from
the value of "PWD".  Furthermore, in this view, I think that we MUST NOT
use "PWD" environment variable to obtain the current directory because
it's never standardized.
