I guess I wasn't clear.

My proposal was not to do any chdir()'s (nor getcwd()'s) anymore so that
as you said, multiple threads can run in parallel correctly. What I want
to do is emulate the chdir() behavior, or in a more general sense the
current working directory behavior by saving the current working directory
per-thread as a string and working with that everywhere. A call to our new
virtual_chdir() function would change that string to reflect the new
working directory and would not actually call the chdir() system call.
virtual_getcwd() therefore, would return the value of the current working
directory string and not the result of the system call getcwd().
