Re: BUG #5267: initdb fails on AIX: could not identify current directory

Well, there is an argument that a system call is using to get somewhere?
Even if it is a number, it is something. I could do an ncheck or whatever to
at least find what it is calling.

As I am not at all familiar with the code - just give me source to debug,
and I'll work from that.
