I just grabbed the source for bash from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/.
(http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-4.2.tar.gz)
Opening the doc/bash.1 file with man, I noticed that this is the state
of that paragraph in that source package:
"Bash attempts to determine when it is being run with its standard input
connected to a network connection, as when executed by the remote shell
daemon, usually rshd, or the secure shell daemon sshd. If bash deter‐
mines it is being run in this fashion, it reads and executes commands
from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists and is readable. It will not do
this if invoked as sh. The --norc option may be used to inhibit this
behavior, and the --rcfile option may be used to force another file to
be read, but rshd does not generally invoke the shell with those
options or allow them to be specified."
So it seems to me that the file name was simply duplicated and was only
supposed to be mentioned once. So the solution is probably just to
remove the duplication.
