I have read the known issues, faq and searched for open issues matching this, and I found nothing, so hoping this is new to you. I tried splitting up a script into modules, and found that I need to add the current path to PSModulePath in order to do so. Whatever I did, Powershell never found the module. After doing the same in Windows, I discovered it perfectly there immediately. I can see no issues regarding casing here, so that tip does not seem to apply here.

Steps to reproduce

First, download latest version 6 alpha build (12 as of now) for Mac. Then clone and run the test case:

git clone https://github.com/fatso83/powershell-module-test
cd powershell-module-test
powershell -File bar-test.ps1

Expected behavior

This should be output (which is the case on Windows, using Powershell 3):

Oh, hello there. You are now loading the Bar module  

Bar says hello

Actual behavior

Import-Module : The specified module 'Bar' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory.

verify that the path is correct and try again.
