It strikes me that a more useful "reminder" feature could be implemented
by having \cd itself print the new current directory, which it could do
with a simple call to getcwd(), thus not requiring refactoring of
make_absolute_path.  Then for instance if you'd forgotten where you
were, "\cd ." would tell you.
