'unix env' does not mean very much. Which OSs are you actually talking about?
whence is most likely returning nothing because the directory containing the script is not in $PATH - which is nothing to do with differences in the OS, you just have them set up differently.
Whether ${PWD} will work depends on how and where the script is being run.

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.

shtool(1), sed(1).
