mock now uses a login shell for the build phase, invoking bash as:
bash -l -c ...
It would be nice if this was changed to:
bash --login -c ...
(twi lines need changing in backend.py)
This is because the --login long option pre-dates the -l short option in
bash; the short version isn't understood in some really old
distributions (like RHL7, don't ask!) and its use precludes use of mock
in building packages for those releases. The long version seems to work
everywhere.
