I can not test Masis code right now, because I don't have a
Windows-Box for *testing* at the moment. :-/

Idea: Would it make sense to get a new method in t3lib_div for this to 
"solve" this *nix-Issues for TYPO3? I mean something like this:

t3lib_div {
   getcwd() {
     return $_SERVER['PWD'] ? $_SERVER['PWD'] : getcwd();
   }
}


So this value could be resolved via calling "t3lib_div::getcwd()".

Well, it's not complicated but blows up the code quite a bit.

Is this really necessary?


Questions I ask myself right now:

- Could this code be reused in other contexts?

- Would it make sense to encapsulate this into a function?

- @if (!preg_match('/^([A-Z]:)?\\/', $temp_PATH_thisScript)) {

Is it possible to use existing functions for this? Like:

   t3lib_div::isAbsPath($path)
