Hmmh, just a wild guess: I discovered that the calls to getcwd from
within latex2html use a sloppy syntax, that is &getcwd instead of
getcwd(). This comes from days before getcwd was defined in
Override.pm. Can you check that your call in question does indeed call
getcwd()?

Yup, at least mine :-(

Apprently there is prototype mismatch between getenv in Override.pm
and POSIX.pm. What happens if don't export getenv from Override.pm?
Override.pm was introduced before the existence of POSIX.pm came to my
mind.
