Not that I'm aware of. My 'by default' comment refers to a default Python installation, i.e. unpatched. As far as I know, the real culprit in this is p4. I'd argue it's a bug, since they should be using getcwd(), not getpwd(). Moot point - I don't want to wait for git-p4 until I have convinced perforce to fix this and a new p4 rolls around ;) > If there is none, I think your > patch, even though it looks ugly, is the least evil approach.

But hold off on applying - I'll resubmit with the run_p4 approach today.
