Sorry, but this does not appear to be a bug. No distribution sources
~/.bash_profile when it starts X, though many source ~/.bashrc. Assuming
that all systems will source ~/.bashrc for X is not a generally portable
assumption, and depends on the default shell for the system. .xsession,
on the other hand, has been used for such things for forever, and that
is, after all what it's for. You can always have .xsession source your
.bashrc (though that should generally only be done when the system shell
is bash, or .bashrc consists of entirely portable constructs, which is
somewhat unusual).

** Changed in: Ubuntu
       Status: New => Invalid
