vim subwindows ignore "cd %:p:h"

I have my main vim window split into subwindows, opened on different
files with different paths. When I do a "cd %:p:h" on one subwindow,
sometimes the other subwindow has a "pwd" that stays at the path in
which the editted file resides. In my vimrc, I have:

set noautochdir | setl noautochdir | setg noautochdir

I confirmed that these options are disabled using set, setl, and setg.

I also piped the results of :autocmd into a buffer and looked for
"cd", "lcd", "\<cd", "cd\>", "autochdir", and "acd". Nothing. I
did a :vimgrep/thePrecedingPatterns/**/* from my personal vimfiles
directory (the system vimfiles directory points to the personal
vimfiles directory since it is a user-specific installation of
cygwin). Again, nothing.

What else can I do to permanently prevent some subwindows for defying
my will when I "cd %:p:h" in another subwindow?
