Weird path duplication for shell scripts?

Cygwin b20.1, Windows NT sp4
While building man, I ran into this odd problem: Executing a shell
script with an explicit relative path causes duplication of the path
section, resulting in the script failing. Example:
[assumes a subdirectory "x" containing a shell script "scr"]
bash$ x/scr
x/x/scr: Can't open x/x/scr
bash$
STRACE confirms this:
[...]

Help?? Sorry if this has been addressed before, couldn't find a thing
in the archives or the FAQ...
