Try adding "cd /djgpp; pushd /hackery/foo" here.

Yes and no. PWD is present but points at
e:/hackery/bash_emacs_confusion not at
e:/hackery/bash_emacs_confusion/a (/hackery, /hackery/foo in
your case).

I don't think so. I haven't configured emacs at all and I don't think
I've configured bash.

Windows 98.
