: Affects:        All releases of FreeBSD up to and including 4.8-RELEASE
:                 and 5.0-RELEASE
:                 FreeBSD 4-STABLE prior to May 22 17:11:44 2003 UTC
                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I guess rev. 1.9.2.1 of realpath.c fixed the problem more or less
by accident.

Christoph
