Which bugzilla? I'd appreciate if you sent me a link ;-)

There is something more... It allways works with a fully qualified file 
name, but not with the file name alone.

AND after 2 1/2 days it stopped working at all. I had to change to 
MS-DOS to continue working.

Let me explain: sometimes it I run just "T" it says "file not found", 
for the first 2 days, it happened only a single time the first time, 
plus permanently after many hours. Then I had to reboot. All the time 
fqn like "M:\T" worked ok.

Plus getcwd() does not work.

And path to a subst'ed drive works just fine.

Is this a new kernel version?
Will you make a new binary release? I would help a lot ;-)
