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.
