(*) and, funny enough, there's no API call in Win32 to return a DCWD.
There's just a call GetCurrentDirectory() which returns *the* CWD.
Which makes sense, given that the RTL_USER_PROCESS_PARAMETERS can only
store one CWD per process.

Well, this is not surprising, as there is no such thing as a DCWD in
Windows. It is strictly a cmd thing. Try this: start 2 instances of cmd in
parallel:
*** First cmd ***
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]
(C) Copyright 1985-2000 Microsoft Corp.
C:\Documents and Settings\ableau>cd \winnt
C:\WINNT>D:
D:\>c:
C:\WINNT>
*** Second cmd ***
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]
(C) Copyright 1985-2000 Microsoft Corp.
C:\Documents and Settings\ableau.SOLVISION>d:
D:\>c:
C:\Documents and Settings\ableau>
***
The "DCWD" is clearly independant for each cmd.
