/etc/profile in BASH

[Masterson, Dave]

Question:

In Cygwin 1.1, why are the last two lines of the installed /etc/profile the
following?

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

As described in the BASH MAN page, it would seem that BASH does this already
after reading /etc/profile.  Is this required because of the implementation
of Cygwin on MS-Windows?
