Attached is a patch that makes the output of Cwd.pm a bit more useful.

Before it would silently return an empty string if pwd was not found in 
/usr/bin/pwd (and some other paths) now it returns:

pwd was not found in '/bin/pwd', '/usr/bin/pwd', '/QOpenSys/bin/pwd';
cwd() and fastgetcwd() might not work. Either create a symlink or modify 
Cwd.pm (look for  my \$pwd_cmd  )


If pwd fails for whatever reason then it now shows the error that was 
returned. Before it would silently return an empty string.


Kind regards,

Bram
