Any progress on getting this fixed? Apparently BSD systems need
.. lookup to work, while linux systems shortcircuit this in the kernel.
pwd works in /coda, and fails in /coda/testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu
poblano gdt 46 /coda/testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu > l -ai
ls: ..: No such file or directory

oddly, in my own realm, ls -lai gives me a .. line:
7 dr-xr-xr-x 1 root 65534 2048 May 11 14:15 ..
which matches my realm in /coda:
poblano gdt 55 /coda > l -ai
total 7
7 dr-xr-xr-x 1 root 65534 2048 May 11 14:15 .
So it seems that .. is sort of in my kernel cache, but not really, and
things aren't quite right.
A stunning number of programs (mostly newfangled heavyweight crud like
acroread and soffice) fail if they can't do pwd. Programs like ed(1)
work fine, but unfortunately I have to deal with pdf and doc....
Thanks,
