I tried this in my bash here (under the "Terminal" program in Debian):
larsi@marnie:~/src/emacs/trunk$ set | grep LINES
LINES=24
larsi@marnie:~/src/emacs/trunk$ set | grep COLUMNS
COLUMNS=80
So they're in my env at least.
But I see I have this in my very ancient ~/.bashrc:
# check the window size after each command and, if necessary,
# update the values of LINES and COLUMNS.
shopt -s checkwinsize
