I don't know if the ~/.profile is run when you ssh- it is usually run 
when a bash shell is started interactively (and I don't recall if ssh 
starts an interactive bash shell). I have my CYGWIN variable set as a 
system environment variable, because I use CYGWIN=ntsec binmode tty, and 
IIRC that I need the ntsec part to be set before the inetd service 
starts. I don't currently use sshd.

Your mouse has moved.
Windows NT must be restarted for the change to take effect.
Reboot now?  [OK]
