Try commenting off portions of your .bashrc by inserting "#" with Emacs to see if you can make the complaint go away.
Alternatively, save a copy of your file as a backup, then just delete portions to see if you can eliminate the complaint. When the complaint goes away, try putting in just half of what you had last taken out, followed by - possibly the other half. This is known as "bisecting a bug". It does not always work but when it does it can be a very powerful technique, because the actual source of the complaint may be in some other code that you do not yet have any reason to suspect.
