OK. I have investigated further and have hit a brick wall.  The
problem is not the exception being thrown by getFullPath.  Both the
Linux and HP-UX versions should throw the same exception under the
same conditions.  The difference is that for some reason, on the Linux
system the "base pathname" exception is caught and translated into a
"could not open" exception.

I have not been able to find where this translation takes place.  I
know it has to be in there somewhere, but where?  Any pointers?
