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 ..
