The following reply was made to PR kern/128933; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Arjan van Leeuwen" <freebsd-maintainer@opera.com> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org, vega.james@gmail.com Cc: Subject: Re: kern/128933: [libc] realpath(3) does not follow SUS specification for a NULL/empty path Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 16:13:33 +0200 We ran into this recently. This is a real problem in portable code, since it's not possible to assume that realpath() will notify the caller if a file doesn't exist, even though it should according to the specification.
