I can't really describe this problem accurately, since I'm not sure
what caused it, but after using bash in the normal way certain
commands started behaving in a really odd fashion. For example, I
alias cd to a function which changes directories and then echoes the
pwd. All of a sudden, nothing is echoed. Other commands behave
normally, but as soon as I type an incorrect command (with the error
message "command not found") all the previous stored `pwd`s show up
all at once. The same thing happens with alias. alias produces no
output, but after an error, all my aliases are flushed to stdout. 

Is this some problem with buffered i/o in bash? This has only happened
to me once so far, but it has happened to a friend of mine a couple of
times already.

Has anyone got any experience with this at all?

Thanks.
