getcwd: Fix bug from 2011-08-17.

* m4/getcwd.m4 (gl_FUNC_GETCWD): Set REPLACE_GETCWD to 1 only on
platforms that need it.
* m4/getcwd-abort-bug.m4 (gl_FUNC_GETCWD_ABORT_BUG): Consider a return
code of 4 to be a failure, not a success. This ensures that
REPLACE_GETCWD becomes 1 on OpenBSD 4.9 and NetBSD 5.1.
