Putting a mention of it in would cause more problems that it would solve.

Maybe, but a mention of it might not.  Some verbiage that some implementations
of bash "may implement a system-wide 'bashrc' equivalent, that by default,
is called '/etc/bash.bashrc'.  More information is available in the source".

Yeah...it might confuse some people.

But certainly no more than having /etc/bash.bashrc call /etc/profile, by default
and having /etc/profile call "$HOME/.bashrc" by default (which ends up with
some "distributions" (SuSE10.2) calling .bashrc twice with each bash
invocation (ug!) (not that this is "bash's" fault :-)).
