behavioral change in coreutils `pwd` handling '//' (double slash) caused

I am investigating a possible regression in gnulib that manifests
as a behavioral change in coreutils `pwd` on some Linux platforms.

Comparing coreutils 9.1 and 9.2 release tarballs, freshly built:

$ x=$(pwd) && (cd //tmp && for k in 9.1 9.2; do echo -n $k:\  && 
${x}/coreutils-$k/src/pwd; done)
9.1: /tmp
9.2: //tmp

The coreutils commit that updated gnulib is:

    d42e4e9191abb818fc0e28507085a3945eed1477

The gnulib commit that caused this behavioral change is:

    356a414e8c15ef3f8cc7b7157427c8ce9a9f7c1b
