OK. That clarify the situation. I assumed INCORRECTLY that you run the
perl directly from your Emacs (not in sub-shell). In your case bash
executes ~/.bashrc, So if it does not exist create it and add the line:
    source /etc/profile
That should solve your problems.

You should keep the (setenv "Bash_ENV" "/etc/profile") for commands 
executed directly from Emacs (like shell-command [M-!] or compilation).

Ehud.
