You are running "older" Slackware or S.u.S.E., which has most of the system 
based on libc.so.5.  I contributed the new getcwd.so to Arla, but we run all 
libc6 in ECE and I didn't realize there was going to be a problem with libc5 
until someone reported it.  :-(

I know what to do to getcwd.so to make it work but haven't had the time to 
do it and test it.  In the meantime, download an older version of Arla and 
substitute its xfs/linux/getcwd.c (perhaps this should be included in the 
distribution until I get the libc5 issue sorted).

     We are Linux. Resistance is an indication that you missed the point.
