"Ignore customizations" seems to revert my shell to tcsh, which doesn't
exhibit this problem.
However, my dotfiles are identical to the default versions
at /mit/source/packs/dotfiles/dot.* (which just source the corresponding
files in /usr/athena/lib/init), and the problem is reproducible even
when logging in with no custom ~/.bash_environment, ~/.bashrc.mine,
~/.environment, ~/.cshrc.mine, ~/.startup.tty, or
~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal.
athena$ echo $HOME
/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a/n/andersk
athena$ cd Public; gnome-terminal &
(In the new gnome-terminal window:)
athena$ echo $HOME
/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a/n/andersk/Public
The same thing happens if, instead of typing "gnome-terminal" into the
first window, I use File > Open Terminal or File > Open Tab. The problem
doesn't seem to manifest itself in xterm (or any other terminal I
tried).
