>Description:
	/bin/sh "cd ./." dumps core.

	possibly related lossage:

		$ cd ./
		cd: can't cd to ./

	The latter breaks some install scripts, notably cygnus's kerbnet.

>How-To-Repeat:
	$ cd ./.
	Segmentation fault

>Fix:
	workaround: use bash (or refrain from using the ever so useful
	"cd ./." command.)
