pwd Command and NIS mount points

I am running NIS, NFS and automount.

If I execute

% cd /xyz/data1
% pwd

I get different results depending on the operating system.

On SGI running Irix 6.5.x pwd returns /xyz/data1
On Redhat Linux 7.3 pwd returns /xyz/data1

BUT

On Tru64 UNIX the pwd command returns /tmp_mnt/xyz/data1

All systems use /tmp_mnt but only under Tru64 Unix does the pwd command return the leading /tmp_mnt.

How can I make pwd on the Tru64 UNIX System NOT return the leading /tmp_mnt This is important for scripts that use pwd.
