What steps will reproduce the bug?

Add a subpath import to package.json, e.g.

"imports": { "#foo": "module-name" }

or

"imports": { "#foo": "./path/to/file.js" }

Then try to import it into the REPL (launched from within your package's directory or subdirectory thereof) using require("#foo") or by passing the -r '#foo' option to node.

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

What is the expected behavior?

I'd expect require() in the REPL to behave as if it was invoked from a source file located in the current directory. This is obviously the most convenient behaviour for debugging, and it's how it works for every other kind of module specifier (including relative paths and exported subpaths of the package).

What do you see instead?

Uncaught Error: Cannot find module '#foo'
