I don't know if this has been discussed before, but I dislike the flurry
of `file not found' messages that are produced when CDPATH is non-null
and an attempt is made to change to a nonexistent directory.  The fix is
to delete the call to file_error at line 920 of builtins.c (bash-1.02).
I fixed the same behavior in versions 0.99 and 1.01.

P.S.  I have not mentioned machine/OS configurations, since this is not a
machine-dependent phenomenon.  It's evidently intentional.
