I just did a recent brand new install yesterday and I noticed that /etc/profile no 
longer contains a line like:

        test -f ./.bashrc && . ./.bashrc

It took me a second to figure out why .bashrc wasn't getting read (I thought it 
happened automatically by the shell) until I compared it to an older "working" cygwin 
install.

Is there a specific reason for that missing line in /etc/profile, or could it have 
been an oversight?  I did notice that my redhat 7 system's /etc/profile doesn't seem 
to include such a line.
