Depending on the permissions of the directories, could you do something
like:
1) login as another ordinary user
2) copy the real shell under the directory and name you had incorrectly
set
3) login under that account, using the 'classical' shell in its new,
'phony' location
4) become 'su' and fix things up
Just a thought.
