  There are default copies of a lot of these sorts of installable scripts
under /etc/defaults.  You'll find the original .bash_profile at
/etc/defaults/etc/skel/.bash_profile.  (Note that that's a default for the
version that goes into /etc/skel, which is the 'current' one that's then used
to set up new home dirs the first time a user runs the cygwin shell.)

    cheers,
      DaveK
