Dear Mojca,

For us the sooner the better!

The error message comes from around here:

https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/blob/master/src/gregorio-utils.c#L92

after calling realpath, it might be because Solaris doesn't like the
second argument to be NULL... Gnulibs has an implementations:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=lib/canonicalize-lgpl.c;h=1d0bf6553a75740064addb1f760b2363941c765c;hb=HEAD

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=lib/canonicalize.c;h=900f1a3fc9bc6e4810715d989513dde47c5342c3;hb=HEAD

Maybe we should just install it? Or call with a non-NULL second argument?

> Also, if I try to go a few folders up and then run gregorio, it crashes:

Well, there I have no idea...
