When getcd() or getcwd() is run on the directory ram:; it returns ":".
Is this normal behaviour for those routines?  Is that a characteristic of
the ram:.  It works ok on everything else.

Is there a getcd() replacement that will return "ram:", or should I just patch
around my program.  1.2.1 on a B2000; lattice 4.01.
