bash-2.04-87 sets incorrect value for env variable PWD .......... ......

Hi,

I think BASH sets incorrect value for env variable PWD.

I am using bash version 2.04-87 in suse.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Log in as any user with the login shell as bash.
2.run the command 'cd //' (without quotes).
3.run the command 'pwd'. It shows '//'.
4.echo the env variable PWD, 'echo $PWD'. It shows '//'.

Actual Results:
The env variable is set to '//'.

Expected Results:
The env variable PWD should be set to '/'

Additional Information:
The problem is only when displaying the current working directory. The
command
'ls' lists the contents of the '/' directory thus giving the expected
behaviour.

my make bashbug gives me following information regarding my system's
configuration.

MACHINE = "i586"
