If that setting is a command string, try changing it to:
/bin/bash --login

I would put env settings in .bash_profile myself.

See above.

This is because bash runs the .bash_profile xor .bashrc (login vs
interactive, not both). So having your .bash_profile source .bashrc is
usually sensible. I do that last, at the bottom. Given that .bashrc is
for the "interactive" stuff I test $- (the shell mode options). My
~/rc/shell/rc mentioned earlier goes:
#!/bin/sh
: ${SHDIR:=$HOME/rc/shell}
case "$-" in
*i*)▸ . "$SHDIR/rc.real" ;;
esac
i.e. only both with all that stuff (and there's a _lot_ of stuff :-) for
an interactive shell (has the "i" option).

Odd. Try this:
set -x; . ~/.bash_profile; set +x
should show what's happening, or not happening.
