      <para>
        File::chdir provides a more sensible way to change directories.

      <para>
        Perl's chdir() has the unfortunate problem of being very, very, very
        global. If any part of your program calls chdir() or if any library you
        use calls chdir(), it changes the current working directory for the
        *whole* program. File::chdir gives you an alternative, $CWD and @CWD.
