There it is. From the bash manpage I gather that a non-interactive
bash doesn't read _any_ startup files, except for any file that
is mentioned in the environment variable $BASH_ENV. Does this
variable happen to be set, and to what value?

This one is probably sourced from your .bashrc, I presume...
... and the rest seems quite normal.
