autoconf: path UNIXROOT replacement breaks perl scripts

Description
The new autoconf is replacing x:\usr\xxx paths in PATH with \@unixroot\usr\xxx. While this works fine with libc based apps, it breaks perl scripts:
chomp($SRC_ROOT =
pwd);
produces: 
Can't spawn "pwd": No such file or directory

Is it still relevant? I remember various fixes in this area (both autoconf and perl). And I don't get how to reproduce it now.
