Well, that fixes potential issues from leaving errno in a weird value, but that doesn't fix the fact that we don't return NULL and set errno to ENOENT when a path component doesn't exist. That was the very subject of lib/30943. In the end you agreed on the behaviour realpath(3) should have, and suddenly you're changing your mind because it's convenient for you? How reasonable is that? At least, re-open the PR when you have such a mind change. Inverting the behaviour of a function does not help in keeping bugs away IMO. Quite the contrary. -- Quentin Garnier - cube%cubidou.net@localhost - cube%NetBSD.org@localhost "When I find the controls, I'll go where I like, I'll know where I want to be, but maybe for now I'll stay right here on a silent sea."
