Ha!  I don’t know if that has ever been noticed before.  Good catch!

FWIW, there’s a “magic” version that avoids this issue: “%cd”, viz:

> sage: cd /tmp/this-1/
> [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/this-Integer(1)/'
> /private/tmp
> sage: %cd /tmp/this-1/
> /private/tmp/this-1

Given the workaround, I don’t know that it’s worth a trac report, but if you 
think so, make one.

HTH
