My question would be, why do you need to set the values in .profile as well? All I can think of is that you sometimes ssh into the machine, and you want the environment variables to be set when you log in via ssh. If that's it, and you don't want to redundantly re- parse environment.plist, couldn't you just do
Because I assumed that bash didn't honor environment.plist. Turns out it does but the default /etc/profile overrides it. Good job, apple....
Thanks for the SSH tip and sending me down the path of poking at my profile. A slight modification of /etc/profile and all is in order. :)
