One solution is to set PATH in X11' startup file, ~/.xinitrc. This is  
usually a shell script, in which for example the path to fonts is set,  
the X key or modifiers map is being modified – why not work on PATH  
(and MANPATH, INFOPATH, ...) as well? Couldn't a simple

	. ~/.login

or rather

	. ~/.profile

or even better

	. ${HOME}/.profile

help and set everything for X11?

What is this talk of 'release?' Klingons do not make software  
'releases.'  Our software 'escapes,' leaving a bloody trail of  
designers and quality assurance people in its wake.
