In fact, I found another bug, this time present also on Linux:

$ realpath --relative-base=/ --relative-to=/ /
/

when it should really output '.' (since '/' relative to itself is '.',
and ALL files are below '/' [except when '//' is special]).  Likewise:

$ realpath --relative-base=/usr/local --relative-to=/usr \
    /usr /usr/local/lib
/usr
/usr/local/lib

when it should really output '/usr' (absolute, since it is not a child
of /usr/local) and 'local/lib' (which is a file below /usr/local, and an
output name relative to /usr).

My test caught these, so now I have to revisit my realpath.c patch.
It's getting too late tonight, so I'll have to post the series early
tomorrow.
