What were you trying to do?
add -f gnu
What went wrong?
the appropriate bindir did not end up at the fron of my path.
What should have happened?
the appropriate bindir should have been the first thing in my
path
Yo, got any documentation, or other info?
Yeah, it seems that at some point I had already run add gnu.
I believe that add failed to modify my path, becaue it found
the bindir in my path already.
