Fix PR gdb/23558: Use system's 'getcwd' when cross-compiling GDB
This is a backport of a gnulib fix for the following bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23558 The problem reported there is about the replacement of 'getcwd' when cross-compiling GDB. With our current gnulib copy, the mechanism for deciding whether to use the system's 'getcwd' or gnulib's version is too simplistic and pessimistic, so when cross-compiling we always end up using gnulib's version, which has a limitation: it cannot handle the situation when the parent directory doesn't have read permissions. The solution is to backport the following gnulib commit: commit a96d2e67052c879b1bcc5bc461722beac75fc372 Author: Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> Date: Thu Aug 23 21:13:19 2018 +0200 getcwd: Add cross-compilation guesses. gdb/ChangeLog: 2018-09-10 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com> PR gdb/23555 PR gdb/23558 * gnulib/import/m4/getcwd-path-max.m4: Add cross-compilation guesses.
