At least on Windows, chdir() does not update PWD. Unfortunately, stat() does not fill any ino or dev fields anymore, so get_pwd_cwd() is not able to tell. But there is a telltale: both ino and dev are 0 when they are not filled correctly, so let's be extra cautious. This happens to fix a bug in "get-receive-pack working_directory/" when the GIT_DIR would not be set correctly due to absolute_path(".") returning the wrong value.
