No OSX here either, but just to be sure, could you publish the results of:
which cd; echo $? locate cd | grep '/cd'$; echo $? ls -ldb ~/Library/Application*

The OP likely has a function called "cd" which does other stuff (sets the prompt?) and then calls the builtin cd, but its not quoting the variables properly and so breaking.

I had already tried many different ways of specifying the target directory before giving up and asking for help.
The suggestions concerning a cd alias seem promising because at one time I had RVM installed, which does override cd. There is no alias present but there are artefacts of rvm scattered about so I will check these.
Thanks for the help.
