There were two sets of bugs - one in cygwin1.dll (which is
now fixed in //, but still broken in /proc/registry and /proc/self),
and one in coreutils pwd.c (which is fixed on my local hard
drive, but is not yet packaged as coreutils-5.94-4).
Give me a bit more time; I hope to have the updated
experimental package out by tomorrow.

Meanwhile, I recommend sticking with coreutils-5.94-1
in production environments (my disclaimer that 5.94-3
is experimental still holds true).
