  I agree that this should be the goal; I don't know if Jack's release
procedure would need to be revised before that can happen.  If so, I'd
encourage him to do so.

  Yikes!  I just search developer.apple.com for "chdir" and came up
with no hits, but I really don't know just what that tells me.
chdir() is required for POSIX compliance, but it isn't mentioned in
the C9X final committee draft.
