I can't reproduce a failure in such a cd. The bash behaviour seems to
be the same for both GNU/Linux and Solaris.
On Debian GNU/Linux:
$ install -d -m 100 x
$ ls -l x
ls: cannot open directory x: Permission denied
$ ls -ld x
d--x------ 2 twb twb 40 2008-10-05 20:40 x
$ mkdir x/y
mkdir: cannot create directory `x/y': Permission denied
$ (cd x) && echo cd works
cd works
And on SunOS 5.8:
$ install -d -m 100 x
$ /bin/ls -l x
x: Permission denied
total 16
$ /bin/ls -ld x
d--x------ 2 twb cyber 117 Oct 5 20:45 x
$ mkdir x/y
mkdir: Failed to make directory "x/y"; Permission denied
$ touch x/y
touch: x/y cannot create
$ (cd x) && echo cd works
cd works

Perhaps perl is being silly, e.g. trying to read the contents of a
directory when it chdir(2)s into it.
