that's weird, although it's hardly a problem to do with ebib. ;-)
(though i must say, it's odd that ebib should start if init.el is really
being ignored...)

i'd suspect something else. i see no reason why the OS should have
anything to do with it.

could you send me (part of) a bibtex file you're trying to load? send it 
(g)zipped as an attachment, not as a text file, because i need to have
the exact file byte-for-byte. i'm beginning to have a nasty suspicion on
what the problem might be...
