I can confirm, that I get that message as well, on build_68, although this issue may have been addressed in the latest firmware image.
As the ./profile you described is referring to the bash shell, I know work was being done on it due to the prior bash shell-shock vulnerabilities.
and mhahn now has AlexT_Intel checking into it again
mdw - are you using the latest firmware image which should read build_16 with a cat /etc/version?
