Hi Erik,
> Does anyone have an opinion on this?
Yep, first of all, thanks for doing this work. Sorry for not replying earlier
but FOSDEM/openjdkcw has kept us a bit busy. We're in the process of testing
your change in the reported cases where behavior is broken and shall supply you
with results soon.
There's one nit in the coding I've spotted:
Line 532: if (0 == strncmp(realPathToSelf + indexOfLastPathComponent,
altLastPathComponent, sizeOfLastPathComponent - 1)) {
I'm not sure if you want to subtract 1 from sizeOfLastPathComponent here again,
as I believe this was done in line 526 already and sizeOfLastPathComponent
should already reflect the strlen of the string you want to compare to.
Best regards
Christoph
