NAME
     explain_getcwd_or_die - get current working directory and report errors

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/getcwd.h>
     void explain_getcwd_or_die(char *buf, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION
     The  explain_getcwd_or_die  function  is  used to call the getcwd(2) system
     call.  On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,  obtained  from
     explain_getcwd(3),   and	then   the   process   terminates   by	 calling
     exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

     This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the  following
     example:
	    explain_getcwd_or_die(buf, size);

     buf     The buf, exactly as to be passed to the getcwd(2) system call.

     size    The size, exactly as to be passed to the getcwd(2) system call.

     Returns:
	     This  function  only returns on success.  On failure, prints an ex-
	     planation and exits.
