Define them in the right place: $HOME/.profile instead of $HOME/user/.profile. And make sure there is no .bash_profile. Actually .bash_profile would be even better. And .bashrc would be even better better (since it's recommended to leave .bash_profile empty except a source statement for .bashrc (which is the default in Cygwin anyway)).
