Local mods somewhere in the past? Missed update?

# lsb_release 
LSB
Version:    :core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:graphics-3.1-ia32:graphics-3.1-noarch

# cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS release 5.2 (Final)

Corruption? Have you done an rpm --verify? Have you done an updatedb and
locate for rpmsave and rpmnew? Those are all I can think of.

Keep in mind that when you login, various config/init files are used by
bash, depending on normal operation or not. I've not examined all the
below, but nothing else catches my eye as "The Usual Suspects" (TM).

# ls -ld /etc/*prof* /etc/*bash*
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 17 06:00 /etc/bash_completion.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1437 Nov 28  2006 /etc/bashrc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 10  2007 /etc/desktop-profiles
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  937 Jan 31  2006 /etc/profile
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 13 16:16 /etc/profile.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   32 Jan  3  2008 /etc/yumex.profiles.conf

]# grep -irl alias /etc/*prof* /etc/*bash*
/etc/profile
/etc/profile.d/colorls.csh
/etc/profile.d/vim.csh
/etc/profile.d/colorls.sh
/etc/profile.d/nvidia.sh
/etc/profile.d/vim.sh
/etc/profile.d/which-2.sh
/etc/profile.d/nvidia.csh
/etc/bashrc

In /etc/passwd, add the "-x" flag to the end of the root line and you
should see all executed commands.
