cd // produces unexpected results

By accident I keyed in :

cd //

and noticed that my prompt included both slashes. Further testing, I think,
reveals a minor issue:

root@billlaptop ~# pwd; cd //; echo PWD=$PWD; cd /root; echo OLDPWD=$OLDPWD
/root
PWD=//
OLDPWD=//

I don't believe PWD and OLDPWD should contain double slashes as they're
supposed to be the canonical path.
