I have not set it. The point is that the shell invoked by login
should know that it is interactive because it is invoked with
the name '-bash' instead of 'bash'.

I understand from the documentation so that in this case the
option interactive-comments should be off by default. It is not.
It is on in all the cases I have managed to start a new shell.
