statements in my ~/.bash_profile are these:

which does not have my ~/bin
   

If you don't have this directory, it is not set. Is in this file any other 
file sourced, or does any other file source this one? Maybe in that other 
file PATH is exported.

 

nor the same path as defined in
/etc/profile. Where is my path being set then?
   

Look in /etc/enviroment.
