Thanks.  I have one question, though.  How is treating an
operating directory of / like a nonexistent operating
directory incorrect, since / is the top directory of the
filesystem?  The reason I treated it like that was because
it seemed redundant to block users from going higher than
/ via the operating directory code when they already are
blocked from doing so by the filesystem limits.
