Perhaps.  The other thing is, if we leave it as-is then this make
function behaves differently on Windows and UNIX, which doesn't seem
like a good thing to me.

Maybe instead, we should change the platforms where the native
realpath() doesn't behave properly to use the one built into make
instead.  Of course the problem with this is that the built in
realpath() we have today probably doesn't work properly on Windows
either since it's not DOS-path knowledgeable.
