Wow! I have had this for years (this is an old installation,
contiunuously updated), and only now I discover this!
I have no idea where the problem comes from. I looked for the "SHELL"
string in all file in /etc, /etc/init.d, /etc/pam.d, ~, but I could find
nothing. I could force it, but I would also like to understand where
this comes from...
Found it! It comes from my .screenrc, where I set shell to "-bash"
instead of "-/bin/bash".

I think it is okay, unless you decide that having a relative path for
the shell is a security risk and you don't want to support this. But
yours would be the only program (as far as I am aware) that chuckles on
this problem. As I said, before correcting it now, I had this mistake
working for years (since 2001 at least).
Thank you.
