Just a guess: CDPATH?

From autoconf-2.52's autoconf.info:

`CDPATH'
     When this variable is set `cd' is verbose, so idioms such as
     `abs=`cd $rel && pwd`' break because `abs' receives the path twice.

At least the fragment from itcl/itcl/win/configure.in below smells like
being subject to this portability issue:
..
if test ! -f $TCL_BIN_DIR/../unix/tclConfig.sh; then
    TCL_BIN_DIR=`cd ../../../tcl8.1/win;pwd`
fi
..
