Drat, that's the problem. For some reason, I had a sticky tag of 1.2 on 
the source, so naturally "cvs update" didn't do anything. I've cleared 
all sticky tags and it builds OK without the HAVE_GETCWD.

Ah, I just remembered why I had the sticky tag set - the current version 
fails with a link error:

Linking...
myndbm.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _getdelim
libdiff.lib(getline.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol 
_getdelim
.\WinDebug\cvs.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

Instead of tracking down the problem (I was working on the watch problem 
and didn't want to get sidetracked), I just reverted the lib files to a 
version I knew worked. OK, it looks like we don't need HAVE_GETCWD after 
all, but there is still a problem I need to track down with the MSVC build.

OK, thanks. Oh, right, there it is - right in the header of config.h. Doh!
