This is really poorly worded. The bug report has nothing to do with
symbolic links.
The `problem' is that when in posix mode, bash doesn't try the current
directory if no directory in CDPATH yields a valid directory name to
change to. I interpret POSIX to require that. If you want bash to fall
back to the current directory, include `.' as the last entry in CDPATH.
