That requirement is just to absurd to be taken at face value.  Are you
saying you *CAN'T* call getcwd and save the value before you call chdir,
and that you *MUST* recover the original working directory *AFTER* you
change it.  I don't believe it... and won't waste my time trying to
solve such a silly problem until you demonstrate that you can't do it
any other way.
