The precise recipe is missing, but the following sequence:

emacs -Q -f shell
cd /tmp
pushd

is not a valid sequence in the bash shell, because pushd with no
arguments exchanges the top two elements in the directory stack, and
the directory stack is empty at this point.

This on the other hand works fine, as it should:

emacs -Q -f shell
cd /tmp
pushd /usr
cd bin
popd


If you are using tcsh with pushdtohome set, you want to set
shell-pushd-tohome.

You need to provide a recipe from emacs -Q that says what the problem
is, what your shell is, and any relevant shell options you have set.
