setup: bash-1.02 on an Arete (68020 based) running System V release 3.1
       I used the HP9KS300/SYSV setup.

problem: when bash needs to use the CDPATH to find the directory on a cd
         the next command causes bash to bail out with (*ap++ == MAGIC1).

in other words:

when CDPATH=/usr/src:/usr
and /usr/src contains bash-1.02
and I type "cd bash-1.02"
I get a prompt back - the next command causes the bailout, regardless of what
it is.
