Not really: your backtrace very much looks like the function
`calendar-cursor-to-visible-date' was autoloaded.  Autoloads don't
contain complete paths, they only contain relative file names.  So the
`load-path' is searched, and if "." or nil is at the beginning, the
default-directory is searched first.  Else the standard file would have
been found before default-directory is touched.  Quite plausible that
this is what you saw.
