Hm. Some things I'd check now:
 - do you have any of ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login?
 - you might start a shell with "bash -lv" (the "l" is for
  a login shell, the "v" for verbose: it'll echo all the
  commands it reads)
 - make sure all the components of $HOME/Setup/shell/.profile
  are readable to your shell (I guess yo've checked that at
  least 15 times...)

Cheers
