With a fresh install of cygwin, this is what I get when I start mintty:
  -bash: LANG=${locale -uU}: bad substitution

The bad parameter substitution has been introduced into:
  etc/defaults/etc/skel/.profile
  etc/defaults/etc/skel/.bash_profile

$ cygcheck -f /etc/defaults/etc/skel/.profile
base-files-4.0-7
