Peter and I have been investigating this issue for the 24 hours off
list.

A couple of minutes ago, I believe to have been able to find the
culprit: cpukit/configure trips a bug/shell portability issue in the
shell he is using.

With his shell,
cd .//
is interpreted as 
cd /
while most other shells interpret this as 
cd .

I am able to reproduce this effect (cd /) with ash under FC3, while
bash, (the original) ksh and zsh interpret it as expected (cd .)
