The syntax of bash did slightly change on version 2.x. I remember that I
had to change my .bashrc too. My error resulted from something like
that:

foo () { echo foobar }
=> I recoded:
foo () { echo foobar ; }

Maybe You have to debug Your .bashrc by deleting several lines until it
works and later adding lines util it ceases to work...

Hope this helps, Matthias
