What about |libc::wordexp()| ? At least for correctness reasons it
should work in any runlevel with and without /usr being mounted (note we
have working code in the ksh93-integration prototype002 codebase which
uses ksh93 for |libc::wordexp()| - in theory the code is there to fix
this issue once and for all).
