This is an FAQ, and shows you're doing a UNIX no-no.  You should not
have '.' in root's path.  If you do want '.' in root's path, you should
make it the very last entry.  Chances are it's the first entry in your
case.

Having the current working directory in root's path can be very
dangerous, and can lead to accidents, and worse, system compromises.
