Further testing reveals that the bug only manifests itself if the 
directory in which the batch file is located is a root directory.

In my case, it was the user's home directory on a mapped network drive:

U:\ was mapped to \\fileserver\homedirs\myuser

and the batch file was U:\testfile.cmd

It also happens if you "subst" a drive letter:

subst U: C:\Users\myuser\Downloads

Save the file as C:\Users\myuser\Downloads\testfile.cmd and call it as 
U:\testfile.cmd - The directory C:\Users\myuser\Downloads\ gets zapped.

I can record a video of it if necessary.
