There is a GNU extension that allows to call getcwd(NULL, >0). It is
described in the documentation, but also directly in the unistd.h
header, just above the declaration.

Therefore the attribute access mode added in commit 06febd8c6705
is not correct. Drop it.

Note: I am aware of BZ #26545, however while it is being discussed, the
bug is still there, so I don't think we should block on a decision to
fix it.

Any opinion about that patch? Florian maybe given you have reviewed v1?

Thanks
Aurelien
