+        * w32.c (getwd): Adjust commentary about startup_dir.
+        (init_environment): Always call sys_access, even in non-MSVC
+        builds.  Don't chdir to the directory of the Emacs executable.
+        This undoes code from 1997 which was justified by the need to
+        "avoid conflicts when removing and renaming directories".  But its
+        downside was that every relative file name was being interpreted
+        relative to the directory of the Emacs executable, which can never
+        be TRT.  In particular, it broke sys_access when called with
+        relative file names.
+        (sys_access): Map GetLastError to errno.
