I don't set up OLDPWD in /etc/profile.

No one does -- unless someone is trying to cause mischief. It's not
a likely event, but it would be annoying if someone did it.
But, FWIW, -- it seems like not using 'tainted' values from the
environment in a LOGIN SHELL, would be prudent.
Is it that difficult to only clear previous OLDPWD and
such when $0 == -bash (or when bash is about to read "/etc/bash_profile")?
