The file /mit/webeq/cshrc tries to extend people's paths to
include the java locker in their path.
It does this by hardcoding arch/$ATHENA_SYS into people's paths,
which used to be good, but stopped being the best way to do it
about a year ago. It is now better to use "athdir".
A patch for /mit/webeq/cshrc is included.
