Actually I would recommend doing this by altering the ".login" file in
your home directory (or creating one if none exists) - this is safer
than changing the default /etc/profile, which will change things for all
users and not just you (on a multi-user system),  That indeed means that
"root"'s settings will be changed by changes to /etc/profile as you
surmised.
