deblob-main and cmp

Hi
I was watching the code of deblob-main, and I ask myself: when the "deblob-check" and "deblob-$kver" it is compared?.
This lines are skipped (and for deblob-check, too):
[...]
if test -f $dir/deblob-$kver; then
 if cmp $dir/deblob-$kver $deblob; then
 :
 else
 echo $dir/deblob-$kver and $deblob are different >&2
 exit 1
 fi
fi
[...]
Because, $dir is:
dir=`echo 0ドル | sed 's,/[^/]*,,ドル'`
The value is, dir=deblob-main
So we have:
if test -f deblob-main/deblob-$kver; then
 ...
fi
deblob-main cannot be a directory, because is a file.
Why not the use of "pwd" instead of "echo 0ドル | sed 's,/[^/]*,,ドル'"?. It is POSIX.
