I recently switched from Windows NT4 and Windows 2000 to Windows XP. I installed cygwin freshly on both systems. Now I'm noticing that on both systems, .bashrc seems to be completely ignored. I haven't changed this file at all, but suddenly the aliases I define and export are not defined when I try to type them at the shell prompt.
If I do source ~/.bashrc it works without error, but the aliases are *still* not defined. I noticed by running 'cygcheck -s' that the new systems seem to have DLL build 1.3.22 (3/18/2003), while the older ones were running build 1.3.20 (2/18/2003). However, nothing else has changed. This used to work, but now doesn't. Any clues?
