I just today (11/16/2001) upgraded my bash to whatever the current version
is. Now the '\w $' prompt
is showing stuff like:

programs/wget/./wget-1.7/..

The same prompt string display just fine on RH 7.2. Can someone tell me
what's going on?
Why is the garbage in the $PWD variable?

Ed Bradford

bash --version shows:
