canonicalize_file_name


On my Linux boxes, /usr/include/stdlib.h declares a function called
'canonicalize_file_name()'. AFAICT its purpose is to return the absolute path to a file (or folder) after resolving any symbolic links in the supplied path. Cygwin's stdlib.h doesn't contain this function. I just wondered if it's available anywhere else or if there's an equivalent function elsewhere.
