That won't help. The initial directory in which Emacs starts can be
controlled that way, but that's not what you will see in some random
buffer's default-directory. It is completely OK for Emacs to change
its cwd, as far as the OS is concerned, after it was started, because
that directory doesn't affect how Emacs works.
