With this update, ~/.profile is no longer sourced upon or before invoking an interactive non-login bash shell. I noticed it when bringing up a manpage. I set $MANWIDTH to 72 columns from .profile and export ten or so other environmental variables from that file. Same non-sourcing of .profile occurred using xterm, xfce-terminal, or urxvt.
My work-around is to source ~/.profile from ~/.bashrc.
