I was doing to do so, here was my message:

--------------------------------------------

I looked directly at `pwd` sources, and indeed it is using $PWD [1].

[1] http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/tree/src/pwd.c?id=509152bdd47a278dc00ddaf3200ac65044b836b1#n305

So it looks like `cd -L` is just some bash internal dealing with $PWD. Probably not something useful enough to be in the standard library, closing it then.

Sorry for the incovenience
