Interesting, but probably not a bug in Emacs.  Please try the following:
log in as root on the console, type su - nobody (getting the "No
directory,..." message above) and type e.  Without hitting return, I got
the message: -su: e: command not found.

It's also funny that subsequent invocations of `su -c nobody' don't show
this behavior until I log out and in again.

Sven
