Yes, it expands the directory name. In this case, it expands `.' to $PWD,
and the differing prefixes make the names not match. I'll have to see
what I can do about that. It might be a nasty fix, since the same function
has to make sure that `.' does expand to $PWD to honor the shell's logical
view of the file system. I'm not sure what negative consequences dropping
that rewrite might bring.
