Setting CYG_SYS_BASHRC in bash.bashrc has no effect because it is run a
(...subshell...) environment:

Fix:

+++ bash.bashrc 2012-02-28 11:00:30.657407200 +0100

-([[ -z ${CYG_SYS_BASHRC} ]] && CYG_SYS_BASHRC="1") || return
+{ [[ -z ${CYG_SYS_BASHRC} ]] && CYG_SYS_BASHRC="1"; } || return

or without any parentheses:

+[[ -z ${CYG_SYS_BASHRC} ]] && CYG_SYS_BASHRC="1" || return

Older issue since base-files-4.0-4. AFAICS it does not break anything.
