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.
