Bug report: PWD environment variable broken!

On some platforms, the PWD environment variable is not being properly
updated after a cd. This is the environment variable, not the
internal PWD variable.
Here is some output on a variety of systems for this command sequence:
uname -a; echo $ZSH_VERSION; cd ~/x/build; env | grep PWD | grep -v OLDPWD
Conclusions: 3.1 Seems to be broken on Linux and BSDI. A serious bug.
I tried to downgrade to 3.0.5.
3.0.5 on BSDI coredumps on invocation.
On Linux 3.0.5 failed to build:
gcc -c -I.. -I. -I. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -Wno-implicit -Wmissing-prototypes -O2 builtin.c
builtin.c:4279: macro `dup' used with just one arg
:-(
It's sad to see my favorite shell so buggy!
