Which raises the question: what if the current directory no longer has
a path name? Or is that simply not possible on Windows? I know that on
Linux, I can unlink a directory while being in it (which creates
interesting problems for bash, git, and other tools, but not
fundamental ones for the process model itself), and many references
WILL be resolved correctly. Or I can move the directory to another
parent, and "pwd" says the original name (because that's a shell
feature), but "ls .." will list the contents of the new directory.

Windows won't let you delete a directory that's currently being used.
