Any comment so far? Wrong list ?

If this patch is not accepted:
Would it be possible to change /etc/profile such that PS1 is set before 
/etc/profile.d scripts are run?
This would allow to change the prompt in a local /etc/profile.d script. 
This worked with the old base-files 3.9

Thanks,
Christian
