Interestingly,  rpm requested an  empty chdir.  This narrows  down the
problem.

The following miniapp should be able to reproduce the problem:

cat << EOT > blah.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(void) {
	if (chdir("")) {
		perror("chdir");
		exit(1);
	}
	exit(0);
}
EOT

Does it?
