Thanks for the further review.  I installed the patch with your suggested changes
and am marking this as done.

Here's a patch that I plan to install to simplify Emacs based
on assuming that the underyling system supports POSIX 1003.1-1988
or later with respect to unistd.h.  This is universal these days
on GNUish hosts, and I don't forsee any problems with Microsoft
hosts.  I'm CC:ing this to Eli, though, to give him a heads-up
just in case.

It may help in a later patch to simplify the Microsoft side by
removing getwd and standardizing on getcwd, since that's what
POSIX did back in 1988, but that's an issue that's independent
of this patch.
