4 # canonical path of the current working directory, when make started.

6 # In all normal situations, the current directory exists, and its name can
7 # be resolved. If not, make fails at startup.
8 #
9 # It would be possible on some systems to remove the current directory, even
10 # while a process runs in it, but this is so unrealistic that it's no worth
11 # testing.
