directory looks like this
./main.js
./say-hi.js
./temp/thing.js
code like diss
main.js
========================================
#!/usr/local/bin/node
var child_process = require('child_process');
console.log('main');
console.log('cwd:', process.cwd());
console.log('__dirname:', __dirname);
var child_options = {
cwd: "./temp",
stdio: [ 'ignore', process.out, process.err ],
env: process.env
};
var args = [];
var fork_path = __dirname + "/say-hi.js";
child_process.fork(fork_path, args, child_options);
========================================
say-hi.js
========================================
#!/usr/local/bin/node
console.log('say-hi');
console.log('cwd:', process.cwd());
console.log('__dirname:', __dirname);
t = require('./thing');
========================================
temp/thing.js
========================================
#!/usr/local/bin/node
console.log('thing');
========================================

process.cwd() updates but __dirname doesn't; presumably require uses
__dirname to lookup files.
I think the relevant path resolution code is in node/lib/module.js if you
want to see how 'require' functions.
Is this behavior correct and documented somewhere?
