This no longer applies, see the attached updated patch.

Support for getcwd (NULL, 0) is available in all glibc-based
distributions. That includes at least Linux, kFreeBSD and Hurd.
Attached is also a build dependency on quilt in debian/control. I don't
know if this is strictly needed, but is included for completeness. The
source directory does not have a debian/patches directory since no
patches are present currently. However, the source format is 3.0
(quilt).
Thanks!
