extractbb errors on all calls

[David Carlisle]

The new Lua extractbb fails for me in both cygwin and (wsl) linux  all
calls with any argument fail the test

-- Make sure that the script is beside this one, just to be safe
local split_dir_pattern = "^(.*)[/\\]([^/\\]-)$"
local current_dir, current_name = arg[0]:match(split_dir_pattern)
local choice_dir, choice_name = choice:match(split_dir_pattern)

if current_dir ~= choice_dir then
    print("Refusing to run a script from a different directory. Exiting.")
    os.exit(1)



so I get for example


$ type extractbb
extractbb is hashed (/usr/local/texlive/2024/bin/x86_64-linux/extractbb)
$ extractbb
Refusing to run a script from a different directory. Exiting.

or (what flagged in the latex test  suite)

$ extractbb -O ./example-image-a4-numbered.pdf
Refusing to run a script from a different directory. Exiting.


compared to a texlive 2023

$ extractbb -O example-image-a4-numbered.pdf
