in reply to Resolving correct directory path in a symlinked directory

Likely to be unrelated to your problem, but does your whereami.pl have a typo? I get an error when I run it:
$ whereami.pl Search pattern not terminated at whereami.pl line 4.
No error if I change the print to:
print cwd(), "\n";

    You're right - typed it wrong when I was putting in the example.
