Emacs.app version 23.0.60 (9.0)
(getenv "PATH")
=> bare minimum (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin)
exec-path
=> bare minimum but with /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin
OSX seems to keep paths in /etc/paths and files in /etc/paths.d, programs
launched from Terminal seem to pick this up but Emacs.app is not loaded from
terminal so the path is kinda small. the problem was interacting with other
programs via m-!, eshell, etc.
this seems to fix it, not sure if it's the right way tho.
(setenv "PATH"
(let ((osx-path-files
(append (mapcar (lambda (x) (concat "/etc/paths.d/" x))
(delete ".." (delete "." (directory-files
"/etc/paths.d"))))
'("/etc/paths")))
(read-path-file
(lambda (file)
(when (file-readable-p file)
(delete ""
(split-string (with-temp-buffer
(insert-file-contents file)
(buffer-substring
(point-min) (point-max)))
"\n"))))))
(mapconcat 'identity
(reverse (delete-dups (reverse
(append (reduce 'append
(mapcar
read-path-file osx-path-files))
(split-string (getenv
"PATH") ":")))))
":")))

Applications are not run from a login shell, so they don't inherit the
same paths. This is an old problem.
Your method of addressing this won't work with pre-10.5 versions of
the OS.
The correct way is, IMHO, either leave it to the system to set the
correct environment variables for the applications, or, as a
convenience for users, start a login shell, print the environment and
import it. (I've been doing that in Aquamacs for a long time; the
code is there if people want it.)
