You have to do this manually? Doesn't the default ~/.xsession of your
distro source the profile files? Mine has the following lines:

 
# Read system and user profile if not already done
#
if test -z "$XSESSION_IS_UP" ; then
    readonly XSESSION_IS_UP=yes
    export XSESSION_IS_UP
    test -r /etc/profile && { . /etc/profile > /dev/null 2>&1 ; }
    set +u > /dev/null 2>&1
    test -r ${HOME}/.profile && { . ${HOME}/.profile > /dev/null 2>&1 ; }
    set +u > /dev/null 2>&1
fi

#
# Read the profile of tcsh users
#
case "$SHELL" in
*/csh|*/tcsh)
    while read env ; do
        var="${env%%=*}" ; val="${env#*=}"
        test "$var" = "umask"  && umask $val
        test "$var" = "$val"   && continue
        eval export $var="\$val"
    done < <($SHELL -c 'test -r /etc/csh.login && source /etc/csh.login;
                        test -r $HOME/.login   && source $HOME/.login  ;
                        printenv; echo -n umask=; umask')
    ;;
esac


which does that.
