There's just a call GetCurrentDirectory() which returns *the* CWD.
Which makes sense, given that the RTL_USER_PROCESS_PARAMETERS can only
store one CWD per process.
Well, this is not surprising, as there is no such thing as a DCWD in
Windows. It is strictly a cmd thing. Try this: start 2 instances of cmd
in parallel:

The "DCWD" is clearly independant for each cmd.
Well... duh. getcwd() is process-independent, why shouldn't dcwd be
also? Nor should this be surprising since dcwd is "implemented" using
environment variables; the environment is also per-process.
