Subject: Re: toolchain/32983: pwd -P, found in build.sh, doesn't work with
 GNU/Linux

 Is this causing a problem with build.sh?
 
 The revision 1.124 says:
 
 "Ignore errors when running pwd -P.  (GNU coreutils incorrectly 
 complains)"
 
 The change in 1.123 was:
 
 -       if [ "${uname_s}" = "SunOS" ]; then
 -               TOP=$(pwd -P)
 -       else
 -               TOP=$(pwd)
 -       fi
 +       TOP=$(/bin/pwd -P)
 
 
 On NetBSD, the -P is the default.
 
 (Also I don't see the -P switch documented in man pages for pwd I found 
 for Solaris on the web.)
