The following program hangs under both 2.0.0-SNAP950322 and 2.0.5.
(No, I haven't looked at how to fix it -- sorry)
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
main(int argc, char **argv) {
char result[MAXPATHLEN];
char *f = "/tmp/loop.trost";
symlink(f, f);
if (realpath(f, result) == 0)
printf("We have a problem here, Houston: %s\n", result);
else
printf("path is %s\n", result);
}
