- Subject: RFA: Use lrealpath instead of gdb_realpath
This patch will have no effect on any system except mingw32; on that system,
it will call GetFullPathName after the patch, since Danny Smith added bits
for that to libiberty last June.
Eli, I understand that you think this is a bad choice. However, the mingw32
maintainers disagree. My only motivation here is to get rid of the
duplicated function; I thought I'd done this in the first place, but
obviously I forgot to. I don't want to leave both copies around, in case
they continue to diverge.
Chris, since mingw32 should be the only affected target, I'll ask you for
approval. OK? I verified that there is no change in behavior on
i686-linux.
