Can you be more verbose about this problem with getcwd()?

The only major differences I see between the BSD version and a glibc version is 
that BSD will allocate a buffer for you if you pass NULL pointer as the first 
arg, and that glibc/Linux will try to look at /proc/self/cwd to try and avoid 
returning EACCES....
