Bug Description

This one is new, and appears to be connected to an update I applied about 30 minutes ago, which included a new version of the bourne again shell. Whenever you use the new shell in a tty, not konsole (I'm running kubuntu beta 13.04), you receive the following error on every line after you enter a command:

sh: 0: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory

I have got no idea why, or what is causing this - it seems obvious that it's having trouble finding out what the current working directory is. Beyond that, I'm stumped.
