Well, i've narrowed it down with echo statements in all my config
files.  Here is the really bizarre part: when i su to root, i have to
use su -l, and it executes .profile, NOT .zprofile, but .profile
(which is for bash, right?)  I read the man page, and it says NOTHING
about .profile being executed, only .zprofile.  Why is this file being
executed, and why does -m clobber my alias settings?  All the other
env variables stay the same with the im option.
