[PATCH] FAKECHROOT_CMD_SUBST patch (was: Re: Other fakechroot changes (was: Re: [PATCH] fakechroot doesn't handle chroot relative paths correctly))

[Richard W.M. Jones]

Piotr,

I've rebased this patch to the latest version of fakechroot from SVN.
I wonder if you'd consider it?  It passes all tests, and we now use it
extensively in libguestfs[1] & febootstrap[2].
