We reject something whose portability is in question by saying
"It's not _even in_ POSIX".  We on the other hand try to refrain
from saying "POSIX says you are supposed to have it, so screw
people that are not fully POSIX".

Yes, I suppose. At the same time, git already implicitly requires more

Yes, and the line is fuzzy and case by case.  I am playing it
safe as we are in pre-release freeze, also I condider /bin/pwd
much more universally available than "cd -P".
