Comment (by pulkomandy):

 There's a difference between ll and custom build-time aliases.

 ll is defined in some system-wide sh file (something like /etc/profile,
 not sure where it is on Haiku). It relies on sh importing this file
 whenever it loads (as system loads it)

 User-defined aliases, on the other hand, relies on sh inheriting aliases
 from the parent shell ? or how are they defined and run ? I don't think
 this makes sense, as user customizations to their system shell may break
 the openoffice build...
