Hi,
i am currently implementing an application that heavily relies on rackets
great serialize functionality to exchange data between racket processes on
different computers. That works well until i stumbled over a very
confusion behavior of rackets filesystem and module path resolution.

Yes, I think Racket should use PWD --- if the expansion of soft links
produces the same path as getcwd(), which seems to be what "/bin/pwd"
does.
Should Racket also set PWD (optionally, but by default) when it creates
a subprocess? I think probably so.
To make sure we're all on the same page:

It would be great if we could normalize every path
to a canonical form, but path normalization in general seems to

That matches my observations. Files accessed via collection always keep
