I found something strange about the `(commands)' construct.  Try this:

	bash -c '(cd .. | ls)'

You will see the listing of the *current* directory, not of its parent,
from `ls'.  I've tried this with a Unix `sh', and it works the same, but 
`ms_sh' does produce the listing of the parent (and I do find this latter 
behavior more intuitive).  What am I missing here?

Btw, if you replace `|' with a `;', it lists the parent directory.
