Emacs tries to keep track of which directory you are in, but it is straightforward to confuse it. Eg: emacs -Q -f shell cd ~ alias foobar=cd foobar /tmp and Emacs will still think you are in ~/. So we need to know what you did starting from emacs -Q to confuse it, before we can say if it is something that can reasonably be fixed.
