Yeah, that was my first thought, too. But this should be a
non-interactive shell, which would generally avoid loading rc files. I
think there are some exceptions, though (e.g., setting ENV or BASH_ENV).
Loading aliases like "mv -i" for non-interactive shells seems somewhat
insane to me. But whatever the cause, I think the workaround I posted is
easy enough to do.
