Re: CVS commit: src/bin/systrace

Hi Elad,

it seems that this commit breaks the purpose of the inpath filter.

inpath is supposed to match the behavior of somebody doing "cd
..". So, if you start at pwd = /usr/home/elad

then inpath "/usr/home/elad" matches

  cd "/usr/home/elad"
  cd "/usr/home"
  cd "/usr"
  cd "/"

Please, revert your commit.

Niels.
