sorry, but my posting wasn't to say i think the current behavior in bash is wrong. i agree w/Chet that when you try to do `cd ..` in a dir that has been disconnected from the active filesystem namespace, the behavior is largely to be expected. If $PWD has no actual parent, then you'll get errors. Falling back to ${PWD%/*} might be nice, but even then it would be superficial until you managed to get back to the actual fs. -mike
