  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.  */
