So you reverted realpath(3) to a broken state.

What's your point here?  Now we should always check errno, even when the
function returns a non-error value?  That's crazy.

If systrace needs a realpath with a specific behaviour, then special
case it, but don't gratuitiously break standard compliance (and, shall I
add, usual practice from what Linux and Solaris do) for the sake of your
own code.  I say that's a rather apparent good reason.

Please re-re-re-revert (or whatever) that change.
