My BLFS 7.6 xterm window displays the wrong prompt, doesn't recognize aliases, and doesn't allow sourcing scripts. Its prompt is "sh-4.3" although I have PS1="/w >" in /etc/bashrc. Aliases don't execute and attempting to source a script results in "file not found."
Whatever the cause is, the effect seems to be that you're not running bash-as-bash, you're running bash-as-sh... it's not reading bash config files, not recognising bash commands, etc. Something is presumably causing bash to run in backward mode, as if invoked as /bin/sh...
