In Emacs #85, ChangeDirectory() does not update the value of
the static string `curwd' (in `abspath.c'), used by other
functions to determine the full pathname of a file.  This
can be fixed by removing the `static' declaration of the
function cdir() in `abspath.c' and changing the call to the
function chdir() in ChangeDirectory() to cdir().  Otherwise,
"change-directory" is quite useless.
