I wonder if it has something to do with it not opening bash, from /bin/bash
but maybe is openning some other shell instead.

Subject: Re: odd behaviour in Mavericks terminal
Hi,
I noticed it as well. Not sure why, it seems strange, but also pretty
obviously deliberate. Odd decision on Apple’s part.
Best,
Zack.

evening all,
Here’s a strange one. Under previous versions of OSX, the terminal prompt
on my mac looked like:
DonalFitzpatricksMacbookPro:~dfitzpat$
which is all very normal. However something very strange is happening
under Mavericks.
If I run terminal, the prompt now looks like:
donalfiricksmbp:~
In other words my name and the type of machine is abbreviated. There is
an anomaly to this. If I run terminal, then do a restart, terminal opens
up on system boot up. However, it opens up with the prompt:
DonalFitzpatricksMacbookPro:~$
Anyone know why this should be the case?
Cheers,
Dónal dfitzpat$
