Sorry, I was implying that you're shell savy and pointers were enough.
Copy fetchenv to your .profile and run it from there (or once you want to run
osgeo4w stuff).

…
fetchenv() {
	…	
}

fetchenv /c/OSGeo4W/bin/o4w_env.bat
…

It runs cmd to get a clean copy of the environment and once more with
o4w_env.bat to get the updated version and then works out the differences,
makes them shell digestable and sources them to the running shell.

Also works with other software that provides batch files to update the
environment (like msvc, strawberry perl, venvs in python - just to name the few
the osgeo4w build scripts use it for).
