Not all shells are "login" shells (or interactive for that matter), but idunno.
Perhaps we can get Artie to rebork his files and try it.
Or heck...
we can just remove the -x bits
* from /usr/bin/login and test it out.
Maybe later. (or will you do the honors now?... i see you're up late too).
EDIT:
*yikes... that might require DURP to fix if you're right. Perhaps it's better to just move /usr/bin/login somewhere, as that would be easier to "undo".

Rats... i don't know how anything works. I just moved /usr/bin/login to my desktop and Terminal launches same as ever.
Proof:
$ type -a login
-bash: type: login: not found
I don't get it... if there's an alternate (builtin), why doesn't
type -a list it?
Does the /bin/bash binary contain its own "internal" login perhaps? ::shrug::
[i guess we can agree if /bin/*sh were all corrupt, then it would be pretty hopeless]
Night-night.
