Ash feature causing defect in configure scripts.

[Earnie Boyd]

I've found that sh.exe has doesn't execute the following in a subshell and thus
affects the parent.  This has an affect on some shell scripts that expect that
the command doesn't affect the parent and IMO I don't think it should either.

Feature/defect:

`cd /` will actually change the directory of the current process when what is
intended is to check the noise returning from the subprocess.

Cheers,
