This causes problems on Windows. We need the following squashed in.

[PATCH] squash! t0021: put $TEST_ROOT in $PATH

We have to use $PWD instead of $(pwd) because on Windows the
latter would add a C: style path to bash's Unix-style $PATH
variable, which becomes confused by the colon after the
drive letter. ($PWD is a Unix-style path.)

Thanks. I have to admit I remain confused about which one to use at any
given invocation (I would have thought that switching to $PWD causes
problems elsewhere in the script, but I guess file redirection is
capable of handling either type).
