I also noticed that although there is a HAVE_FCHDIR (properly set in

How needed are the *at functions? Can I rip them out? Can I emulate
fchdir()? Is there some other way to achieve what fchdir() is being used
for?
Emulating fchdir() is probably the easiest:

Hmm, so I guess borrowing/re-implementing Cygwin's solution is best? How
does one go about overloading 'open'? And how are licensing issues going
to play into this? (Does this new fchdir module need to be LGPL, or is
GPL OK?)
It seems like, sans hash table (or whatever structure), this is a very
straight-forward module to write. I can give the templates for open,
close, and fchdir, but for licensing reasons it might be better if
someone else can provide the fd table.
