On Mac OS X and possibly BSDs, /bin/pwd reads PWD from the environment if available and shows the logical path by default rather than the physical one. Unset PWD before running /bin/pwd in both cd_to_toplevel and its test. Still use the external /bin/pwd because in my Bash on Linux, the builtin pwd prints the same result whether or not PWD is set.
