What were you trying to do?

The release notes say "(Note, by the way, that a "blank" entry in the
TEXINPUTS path list need not be the last item in the list; it can come

corresponding to the default search path in the TEXINPUTS variable:
% printenv TEXINPUTS
.:/mit/rptaurie/src::/mit/sipb/lib/tex/macros

What's wrong:

latex couldn't find article.sty.  

However, it worked when I put one colon at the end:
".:/mit/rptaurie/src:/mit/sipb/lib/tex/macros:" 
(but that's not quite what I wanted).

What should have happened:
