Very true.  I didn't know how you were starting Cygwin.  If you're just
using 'cygwin.bat' and it's not obvious by looking at that file, you
should check out the standard suspects like ~/.bash_login, ~/.bash_profile,
/etc/profile, and other scripts that are sourced as part of a login shell.
See the bash's man page for all the details.
