Thorsten Glaser discovered that the default PATH in dietlibc (if the environment variable is unset) contained the current working directory.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, this issue has been fixed in:

dietlibc version 0.33~cvs20120325-4+deb7u1

minit version 0.10-5+deb7u1

We recommend that you upgrade your dietlibc and minit packages.");
