You have done something wrong/different than what appears on a
relatively clean install:

Since you didn't read it, I'm gonna repeat it:

"If you installed Debian from scratch in the last couple of years you
might have gotten a different system shell. Those of us who have been
using Debian for a *long time*  were asked once during one upgrade
whether we wanted the upgrade to change our defaults and generally
said no.

Welcome to production fellas, where the bleeding edge latest thing
isn't what's installed."


I *did* read that, and it doesn't change anything about what I wrote.
Debian didn't make those changes for you......   Debian has never set
root's shell to bash, ever.   PEBKAC?
