Brilliant! Stupid me! I had
# let the xterm titlebar show the current dir
xtitle() {
if [ "$TERM" = "xterm" ]; then
echo -n -e "\033]0;$@\007" >/dev/tty
fi
}
# Change the 'cd' 'pushd' 'popd' commands to use xtitle()
cd() {
builtin cd "$@"
xtitle ${HOSTNAME%%.*}: $PWD
}
in .bashrc! Thanks!

In a manner similar to ksh. From "man bash":
Function names and definitions may be listed with the -f
option to the declare or typeset builtin commands. The -F
option to declare or typeset will list the function names
only.
