st: pwd and graph use bug

[David Airey <david.airey@Vanderbilt.Edu>]

I have found out the hard way, that if I open a graph file using the  
Apple OS X Finder, my pwd is changed without my being told. If I use  
the same graph file but issuing my command from inside Stata, then my  
pwd is unchanged. This is inconsistent and made me generate two sets  
of files in different directories that caused me some headache. If we  
could fix this that would be great. Below the results illustrate the  
problem. The first use of graph use is echoed from Finder actions,  
the second is issuing a command at the Stata command line.

Thanks,

-Dave
