There's a bad snippet of code (that appears to be from 6.170) going around that encourages users to do this:

setenv PATH .:${JAVA_HOME}

And of course all the login scripts fail and they can't log in (because gnome-session isn't in PATH). After .environment and .cshrc.mine (or their bash equivalents) are sourced in the Athena dotfiles, we should sanity-check path and make sure /bin and /usr/bin are in there. At that point, we have two options:

• append them to $PATH (frankly, I can't think of a legitimate reason to have /usr/bin and /bin not present in your PATH at all -- I can think of reasons for them to be at the end, but not absent)
• Popup a zenity dialog telling the user that they're Wrong(tm) and pointing them at a Hermes article.

We should either fix this or decide we don't care.

   debathena / r25144.d / andersk  18:30  (Anders Kaseorg)                      
       (If anyone has enough access to the svn hook to make it run in           
       LANG=en_US.UTF-8, that would fix the commit zephyrs and emails.  The     
       message is correct in the repository itself.)
