from what i read and heard after last comment it doesn't seem to be an issue other than maybe cosmetic. Let's have a close look at it, but I doubt this is going to be an issue. Expect this bug to be WONTFIX'ed soon.

Closing this bug. The use of /static/bin/pwd over /bin/pwd does not harm Glibc installation.

Is it a problem that it finds /static/pwd and uses it during the installation? I guess the question is: will c library files ever use the program /static/pwd directly? I'd say the c library would just call a C routine to figure out the current working directly, much like pwd would do it.
