I've noticed the same issue when using Ubunut as a host, when I su to
the user lfs I didn't get the bare bash prompt. Like you I worried that
it might hide other environment variables that were being preserved
from the host. Unlike you I've never taken the time to investigate it,
I just cracked on and it all turned out fine so I didn't look back. I
suspect that they compile a default PS1 into bash but it's just a
suspicion.
