The global variable $*CWD is a Path object with certain special properties,
mainly:
+
* It must check whether the path exists before changing its value
* It can only be assigned an absolute path; if you want to make relative
changes, use the Array interface
-$*CWD is specific to the current thread, unlike %*ENV<PATH> or the native
-getcwd/chdir path, which are both usually process-wide.

The variable is used in at least these cases:
-* When a Path object is created, if the string it is given is not an absolute
- path, then $*CWD is prepended to it.
-* When a subprocess is executed, it is executed with the current thread's
- $*CWD as its working directory.
