Solved! See below.

I also tried this with the original DLL, and with the one from the
19990929 snapshot, and both show the exact same problem.

Mounting the drive it's happening on (so the pathname becomes
/f/... instead of //f/...) does not change anything, either.

Nor does ash have less trouble.


HAH! Found it. Neither bash-called-as-sh nor ash can cope with
the CDPATH. They cannot even cope with a CDPATH set to "."!
This sure doesn't happen under Linux.
