I'm not seeing any behavior change on Ubuntu, because building coreutils
on Ubuntu doesn't need to compile lib/getcwd.c. That is, in your
situation if I run 'strace pwd' the trace merely contains:
getcwd("/tmp", 4096) = 4
and pwd then outputs just "/tmp".
You might try (1) figuring out why coreutils wasn't happy with your
library's getpwd, and why it replaced it, and (2) what syscalls the
replacement runs and why (you can do this with strace).
