Log:
  sh: Fix bss-based buffer overflow in . builtin.
  
  If the length of a directory in PATH together with the given filename
  exceeded FILENAME_MAX (which may happen even for pathnames that work), a
  static buffer was overflown.
  
  The static buffer is unnecessary, we can use the stalloc() stack.
