This bug occurred in posix_getcwd() and is being fixed. 
Should the following code in posix_getcwdu() also be fixed the same way?

posix_getcwdu(PyObject *self, PyObject *noargs)
{
        char buf[1026];
        ...
#if defined(PYOS_OS2) && defined(PYCC_GCC)
        res = _getcwd2(buf, sizeof buf);
#else
        res = getcwd(buf, sizeof buf);
#endif
        ...
}

In my opinion, the fixed length buf should be discarded and instead
allocate memory to buf as needed (as the fix code in posix_getcwd()),
since getcwd() does not have a maximum anymore.
